Now Available: Reformation & Renaissance Review Volume 22, Issue 2

12 August 2020

Reformation & Renaissance Review, Volume 22, Issue 2,  2020 is now available, both printed and online.

Editor Simon J.G. Burton: “The articles in this issue speak to a wide variety of themes in Roformation and early modern history and theology. Three of the articles offer new perspectives on Luther, Melanchthon and the German Reformation. They draw on both well-known and little-known texts and traverse territory from ecclesiology to soteriology to educational reform. The other two are reception studies examining the way in which important theological discourses, on grace and eschatology respectively, taking place in Britain in the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries were taken up and transformed in subsequent decades.”
