Shifting Patterns of Reformed Tradition
by Emidio Campi
The thirteen essays in this volume were all presented originally by the author at international conferences and address three main areas of inquiry, all of which, in one way or another, are of key importance in early modern historical discourse and theological thinking. These three areas are: 1) the theological diversity and the debates that took place within the Reformed tradition in the sixteenth century and beyond; 2) Peter Martyr Vermigli’s noteworthy contribution to Reformed ecclesiology and biblical exegesis; 3) aspects of Reformed thought’s later enriched decor on both sides of the Atlantic. The essays show that the Reformed tradition is neither monolithic, nor monochrome, nor immutable, but is evolving rather in different, if interrelated patterns and directions.

- By (author) Emidio Campi
"This outstanding collection of essays illustrates the unity and diversity in the Reformed tradition on a wide scale. With special emphasis on Reformers such as Calvin, Bullinger, and Vermigli, Campi does not simply regurgitate the work of others...on this subject. He uses hitherto neglected resources--such as Vermigli's book of prayers and Beza's correspondence with Bullinger--to show how Reformed authors interacted with one another as they sought theological unity and consensus. This book will be useful to all who desire a broad contextual study of the shaping of Reformed theology in the early Reformed orthodox period." -- Ryan M. McGraw, Puritan Reformed Journal
