Lyke de Vries, Ph.D. (2020, Radboud University Nijmegen) is a research fellow and lecturer in the history of philosophy and scientia at Radboud University. Her research takes an interdisciplinary approach to the challenge of excavating the roots of modern concepts of change and progress, primarily in heterodox traditions marginal to the paradigms dominating current historiography on the early modern period.

Hardback. Condition: New. At the centre of the Rosicrucian manifestos was a call for 'general reformation'. In Reformation, Revolution, Renovation, the first book-length study of this topic, Lyke de Vries demonstrates the unique position of the Rosicrucian call for reform in the transformative context of the early seventeenth century. The manifestos, commonly interpreted as either Lutheran or esoteric, are here portrayed as revolutionary mission statements which broke dramatically with Luther's reform ideals. Their call for reform instead resembles a variety of late medieval and early modern dissenting traditions as well as the heterodox movement of Paracelsianism. Emphasising the universal character of the Rosicrucian proposal for change, this new genealogy of the core idea sheds fresh light on the vexed question of the manifestos' authorship and helps explain their tumultuous reception by both those who welcomed and those who deplored them.
