Calvinism was the most dynamic and disruptive religious force of
the later sixteenth century. Its emergence on the international
scene shattered the precarious equilibrium established in the first
generation of the Reformation, and precipitated three generations
of religious warfare. This collection of essays probes different
aspects of this complex phenomenon at a local level. Contributors
present the results of their detailed work on societies as diverse
as France, Germany, Highland Scotland and Hungary. Among wider
themes approached are the impact of Calvin's writings, Calvinism in
higher education, the contrasting fates of reformed preachers in
town and country, Calvinist discipline and apocalyptic thought, and
the shadowy affinity of merchants and scholars who formed a
critical part of the 'Calvinist International'.
