About This Book

Kirjoitus esittää hengellisen johtajan elämänkulun ja aatteiden kehityksen nuoruudesta asiantuntijuuteen sekä hänen vaikutuksensa Geneven uskonnolliseen ja yhteiskunnalliseen uudistamiseen. Teksti kuvaa hänen kasvatustaan ja opintojaan, teologisia opetuksiaan, kirkollisen kurin ja kansalaisten tapojen järjestelyä, reformoitujen jumalanpalvelusten ja moraalivalvonnan käytäntöjä sekä muutosten vastaanottoa niin ihailevina kuin vastustavina. Lisäksi teos käsittelee riitoja ja oikeudellisia tapauksia, jotka heijastavat reformin ristiriitaisia seurauksia kaupungissa ja sen laajempiin uskonnollisiin jännitteisiin.
