Descriere 2,000 Years of Christ's Power, Volume 3: Renaissance and Reformation - Nick Needham

\nThe Renaissance was a reaction against the attitude of the Middle Ages. And the Reformation was the passionate, divisive argument that grew out of it. Catholics, Calvinists, Lutherans, Anabaptists - our present-day divisions were the front-page headlines of the Reformation. Volume three of 2,000 Years of Christ's Power, in showing the progression of the Reformation era, and the daring bravery of its figures, presents a period of history from which there are many lessons to be learnt - not least of all, the vibrancy of people's lives and the courage with which they faced death.\n \n \nColourful, divisive, and radical\n \n \nFocussing in on the 16th Century, Needham shows us the progression of the Reformation era and the daring bravery of its figures. It's a period of history from which there are many lessons to be learnt--not least of all, the vibrancy of people's lives and the courage with which they faced death.\n \n \n \nAs the series continues, Neeham uncovers how attitudes of the Middle Ages provoked the Renaissance from which the passionate Reformation debates emerged. Follow the convictions and debates of key voices such as John Calvin, John Knox, Ulrich Zwingli, Martin Luther, William Tyndale and Ignatius of Loyola. Catholics, Calvinists, Lutherans, Anabaptists - our present-day divisions are rooted in the front-page headlines of the Reformation.\n \n \n \nFeaturing: \n- The Renaissance \n- The Reformation \n- The English and Scottish Reformations \n- The Catholic Counter-Reformation \n- The Eastern Orthodox World\n \n \n \nVolume three of five. Academically reliable, the accessible, humorous style and accompanying glossary make church history a subject for everyone to benefit from.\n \n \n \nIt is a brave historian who tackles the extremely challenging task of writing the 2000-year history of the church. Nick Needham has more than risen to the challenge... well worth the wait- Michael A.G. Haykin, Professor of Church History, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary\n \n \n
