Description

Reformations is a lively, expansive history of the Protestant and Catholic Reformations and the momentous changes they set in motion. This survey of Western civilization’s transition from the Middle Ages to modernity brings that tumultuous period vividly to life. Carlos Eire chronicles the two-hundred-year era of the Renaissance and Reformation with particular attention to issues that persist as concerns in the present day. Eire connects the Protestant and Catholic Reformations in new and profound ways, and he demonstrates convincingly that this crucial turning point in history not only affected people long gone, but continues to shape our world and define who we are today.

The book focuses on the vast changes that took place in Western civilization between 1450 and 1650, from Gutenberg’s printing press and the subsequent revolution in the spread of ideas to the close of the Thirty Years’ War. Eire devotes equal attention to the various Protestant traditions and churches as well as to Catholicism, skepticism, and secularism, and he takes into account the expansion of European culture and religion into other lands, particularly the Americas and Asia. He also underscores how changes in religion transformed the Western secular world. Reformations is a provocative volume for any reader who is curious about the role of ideas and beliefs in history.

Maren Niehoff presents the first biography of Philo, arguing that his trip to Rome in 38 CE was a turning point in his life. There he was exposed not only to new political circumstances but also to a new cultural and philosophical environment.

Of the many works of Rabbi Moshe Hayyim Luzzatto of Padua (known as the “Ramchal,” 1707-1747), The Path of the Upright stands out as his magnum opus. It was lauded with praise by the leading rabbis of the time and was eventually adopted as a basic text for ethical study. Whether studied analytically or simply read for inspiration, this classic has been a major staple of Jewish religious life.
