Sorrow and Worship in Calvin's Geneva: Their Place in Family History

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Inspired by the works of Steven Ozment, this book is divided into two sections, each of which deals with a particular concern of his writings. The first four chapters address issues of Reformation theology and the medieval heritage, whilst the remaining seven examine the spiritual life of families. Together they underline how modern scholarship by broadening its conceptual outlook and bringing together seemingly unrelated subjects, can provide a more sophisticated understanding of the past.
