Paperback. 318 pagina's. Net en strak exemplaar met minimale gebruikssporen. Bouwsma, Amerikaans historicus, benadert Calvijn (1509-'64) in deze secure, objectieve studie vanuit historisch perspectief. Wij zien een gedreven man vol paradoxen, wiens existentiële angst zijn taalgebruik en theologie stempelt en wiens karakter wordt bepaald door zijn humanistische vaardigheid de spanningen in zijn denken te bedwingen. Zijn God is een ondoorgrondelijke, rechtvaardige God met vreeswekkende morele eisen. Deels bevestigt Bouwsma dus gangbare visies, maar het totaalbeeld is toch grotendeels nieuw. Zo blijkt Calvijn bijv. negatief te staan t.o.v. ascetisme en positief t.o.v. seksualiteit. Hij stelt een vrij groot vertrouwen in de vermogens van het verstand, God is voor hem een verre, onbeweeglijke filosofische godheid, een intellectueel wezen. In zijn statische orthodoxie bekommert Calvijn zich echter minder om de absolute waarheid van zijn boodschap dan om het effect. 777g.…
