9783525550335: The Myth of the Reformation (Refo500 Academic Studies, 9)

Synopsis

In June 2011, the first conference of the Reformation Research Consortium (RefoRC) took place at the Institute for Swiss Reform History at the Theological Faculty in Zurich. The title "Myth of the Reformation" encouraged critical perspectives on conventional ideas about the 16th century Reformation. Peter Opitz offers a selection of lectures held there and gathers multifaceted aspects and perspectives on the topic. As a result, Opitz succeeds in refuting at least one myth, namely that the Reformation period was a boring period in which there was not much more to discover than the conventional myths.
