Historians and scholars of the Reformation’s earliest century are invited to expand their understanding of that critical era by an examination of aspects of Reform which are lesser known than Luther and his activities. This volume widens and deepens and broadens our perceptions of ‘the Reformation’ and reminds us that in fact what we have in the 16th and early 17th century are ‘Reformations’. On the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the German monk and reformer Martin Luther posting his theses (October 31, 1517), the contributors of this volume invite us to expand our understanding of “the Reformation” by an examination of aspects of Reform which are lesser known than Luther to probe some less-explored corners of the Reformation. To be sure, Martin Luther himself receives attention in this volume. But the aim of this book is really to take the occasion provided by the increased attention paid to the Reformation during the year 2017 to explore other theologians, movements, and ideas. The expanding of the scholarly mind and opening up of new vistas often overshadowed by larger figures, like Luther, can only be good for the study of the Reformation and Early Modern era. This volume is intended for students of early modern Church history with a particular focus on the non-Lutheran aspects of that history.

"During the 'Luther year' of 2017, with many studies of Luther and the Reformation appearing, the editors of From Zwingli to Amyraut have assembled a distinguished group of writers to examine 'other theologians, movements, and ideas' that are 'less-explored corners of the Reformation' (7). The result is an important book of scholarship on the growth of European Reformed traditions. [...] This fine collection opens doors to lesser known, but significant persons and issues in the Protestant Reformation." --Donald McKim, Reading Religion, October 29, 2017
