Book Philip Melanchthon  1497 1560  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Philip Melanchthon 1497 1560 Classic Reprint written by George Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philip Melanchthon, 1497-1560 This book, small though it be, is the work of one of the ablest and most thorough modern students of Melanchthons life and works. Unhappily, the final touches and the careful revision which the Author was so competent to give are lacking. When the manuscript was under consideration, the accomplished Author died suddenly as he was engaged in his duties at the Bible House. This sudden departure, while apparently in good health and in the full discharge of his ordinary duties, came as a great shock to the many friends who knew and who loved Mr. Wilson. To these it may prove a mournful satisfaction to get this last treasure from his stores of learning. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Philip Melanchthon  The Protestant Preceptor of Germany  1497 1560  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Philip Melanchthon The Protestant Preceptor of Germany 1497 1560 Classic Reprint written by James William Richard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philip Melanchthon: The Protestant Preceptor of Germany, 1497-1560 By far the larger part of the materials used in the composition of this book were taken from Melanchthon's own writings as contained in the Corpus Rcformatorum. Bindseil's Supplementa and the Wittenberg edition of Melanchthon's works(1562-64) were also used. Besides the other sources of information noted in the margin, the standard Church histories, the Real-Encyclopadie of Drs. Herzog and Plitt, and many pamphlets originating in the memorial year of 1897, were employed. Neither labour nor expense of travel in Germany has been spared in getting accurate information and in ascertaining the opinions of the best and wisest Melanchthon scholars. Galle's Charakteristik Melanchthons (1840), Herrlinger's Die Theologie Melanchthons (1878), and Hartfelder's Philipp Melanchthon als Praeceptor Germaniae (1889), have been very serviceable. For information in regard to the publishing operations of the Wittenberg Press, I am indebted to Mr. G. H. Putnam's Books and their Makers during the Middle Ages. The author has aimed throughout at objectivity of presentation, and has given his authority for all important facts and statements.

Book Philip Melanchthon and the English Reformation

Download or read book Philip Melanchthon and the English Reformation written by John Schofield and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the hitherto neglected relationship between the English Reformation and the Lutheran scholar Philip Melanchthon (1497-1560). It looks at how Henry, following his break with Rome, flirted with Lutheranism as a doctrine to replace Catholicism, before the eventual collapse of the policy and its replacement with a more moderate reform programme under Cranmer. It then goes on to investigate how Melanchthon, as the leading proponent of Lutheranism influenced successive royal governments, both positively and negatively, as they struggled to impose their own brand of doctrinal conformity on the English church. By refracting the well known narrative of the English Reformation through the lens of Melanchthon, new light is shed on many events that have puzzled historians. The study provides fascinating new perspectives on such questions as why Henry suddenly abandoned his Lutheran policy, why Cromwell fell from power in 1540 and even insights into Elizabeth's personal beliefs. By tying events in England into the context of the wider European Reformation, through the work of Philip Melanchthon, this book offers fresh insights into the nature and development of early evangelical Protestantism.

Book Philip Melanchthon  1497 1560  and the Commentary

Download or read book Philip Melanchthon 1497 1560 and the Commentary written by Timothy Wengert and published by Sheffield Academic Press. This book was released on 1997-10 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip Melanchthon (1497-1560) and the Commentary celebrates the 500th anniversary of Philip Melanchthon's birth by highlighting one of his most important contributions to the intellectual world of Renaissance and Reformation: commentary on ancient texts. This book brings together essays not only by recognized connoisseurs of Melanchthon's thought but also by experts on other figures and movements within the Renaissance and Reformation, in order to provide a more accurate measure of the man and his distinction from and influence on other thinkers of his day. It also investigates both Melanchthon's wrestling with biblical texts and his equally significant exposition of other prominent ancient authors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This rich collection of essays by an international group of scholars explores commentaries in many different languages on ancient Latin and Greek texts. The commentaries discussed range from the ancient world to the twentieth century. Together, the chapters contribute to the dialogue between two vibrant and developing fields of study: the history of scholarship and the history of the book. The volume pays particular attention to individual commentaries, national traditions of commentary, the part played by commentaries in the reception of classical texts, and the role of printing and publishing. The material form of commentaries is also considered-including how they are advertised and their accompanying illustrations-as well as their role in education. Both academic texts and books written for schools are surveyed.
