Professor Rupp looks at the consequences of the Revolution of 1688,
including the Toleration Act and the schism created by those who
felt bound in conscience not to accept the new monarchy. He asks
how the alliance between Church and State affected the
Establishment, and how party politics modified its attitudes and
sought to silence its independent voice. He describes the life and
worship of the Churches; the survival of intolerance despite the
principle of toleration; the growth of the dissenting Churches, and
the predicament of the Roman Catholics.
This volume includes the texts of Erasmus's 1524 diatribe
against Luther, "De Libero Arbitrio," and Luther's violent
counterattack, "De Servo Arbitrio." E. Gordon Rupp and Philip
Watson offer commentary on these texts as well.
Long recognized for the quality of its translations,
introductions, explanatory notes, and indexes, the Library of
Christian Classics provides scholars and students with modern
English translations of some of the most significant Christian
theological texts in history. Through these works--each written
prior to the end of the sixteenth century--contemporary readers are
able to engage the ideas that have shaped Christian theology and
the church through the centuries.
