"The Reformation Era: 1500-1650 is designed for understanding history courses in "The Reformation" of The Renaissance and Reformation." It is conceded to be the fullest and most dependable account of those sixteenth and seventeenth-century movements termed the "Reformation" and the "Counter-Reformation." This text is a dispassionate and scholarly treatment of the Catholic Reformations as a Counter reformation. The author's point of view is an ecumenical one. The first edition published in 1954 became the leading text in its field, a position it has held for nearly a generation. This new edition incorporates the major advances in Reformation scholarship since the publication of the first edition, plus illustrations and a list of Popes and sovereigns of the period. The first section is devoted to the changing social structure and the cultural life of Europe on the eve of the Reformation. The second section, on the reformation in Germany, covers the rise, spread, and institutionalization of Lutheranism. The third section covers the spread of Protestantism in its various forms, evangelical radicalism, and the rise of Catholic Reformation. The final section deals with the conflicts between militant Catholicism and Protestantism and their consequences. The Reformation Era has the fullest and most usefully detailed bibliographical essay of any historical work of its type on the Reformation. Not only does this book include the maps of the first edition; but it presents a gallery of portraits of the leading figures of the Reformation." -Publisher
