On Dionysius the Areopagite, Volume 2: The Divine Names, Part 2","authors":"P. Dominiak","doi":"10.1080/14622459.2018.1532729","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/14622459.2018.1532729","url":null,"abstract":"Jews (pp. 20–21). The authors summarize unsparingly the antisemitic views of the Luther of the 1540s. But the unique value of this volume is two-fold. First, the French-reading general public is given a full version of this booklet. It is to be expected that a comparable English translation will also appear, benefitting from the superb annotation that the authors have furnished. For this is the second merit of the book. The arguments which Osiander offers from reason but also from Jewish tradition, are scrupulously researched and documented. It is difficult to imagine any fair-minded reader not being overwhelmed by the evidence, rationally presented. Johannes Eck was utterly unconvinced by his reading, of course, and one of the merits of the annotation is that it notes the arguments (if one may call them that) which Eck presented in his lengthy rebuttal. These have the value at least of illuminating the forcefulness of an ingrained antiJudaism and anti-Semitism which continued to characterize European Catholic culture until the twentieth century. This is in no way to exculpate Protestants, particularly central European Lutherans with their own shocking heritage. In this booklet, by Osiander or another, it is not always easy to disentangle the author’s argument from the attempt to treat the details of the specific historical accusation at Pösing. Thanks to the editors’ careful annotation, the flow of argument remains comprehensible. Let one example from his first eight proofs suffice. Unlike Protestant Christians, he states, Jews expect their obedience to the Law to give them access to eternal life (as St Paul repeatedly points out); inasmuch their law absolutely forbids the taking of human life, how can it credible that Jews would commit so vile an act that would guarantee for ever their loss of paradise? We must be grateful to the editors of the American edition of Luther (Augsburg-Fortress) for their decision to publish in volume 47 the 1543 vituperative treatise On the Jews and Their Lies. With the slim volume which is subject of this review, we now have access to a reasoned and effective response by a contemporary to the antisemitism of Luther and the majority in his era. It was a ray of light, a reason for some hopefulness in a dark chapter of European history. It ought to find its way on to college and university reading lists.","PeriodicalId":41309,"journal":{"name":"REFORMATION & RENAISSANCE REVIEW","volume":"34 1","pages":"251 - 253"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78704874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The focus of the study changes throughout, moving from considering Flacius’s life to analysis of his theology, with the doctrine of original sin receiving a full and careful treatment. All in all, the book is a valuable addition laying foundations for further research, as it provides a good review of Flacius’s life and its influence on his theology, a comprehensive source for facts and further readings, and some hints on the most under-studied areas of Flacius’s thought (for example, an extensive Glossa on the New Testament).

Relationships between Henry VIII and the Wittenberg Reformers deepened with an English embassy, led by Edward Foxe, to the Schmalkaldic League. The delegation was based in Wittenberg 1537–38; German deputations were in England in 1538 and 1539 (the year of the conservative Act of Six Articles). The Reformers’ responses show good general knowledge of events in England. Although Wittenberg had hoped for English conversion, Henrician theological ambiguity impeded negotiations with the League. The executions of Thomas More, Anne Boleyn and Thomas Cromwell caused the Wittenbergers to regard Henry with scepticism. Finally, Melanchthon's relationships to England after the deaths of Luther and Henry VIII are discussed. Developments under Edward VI made the English Reformation recognizable as part of the wider movement, and Melanchthon advised that English exiles in Germany should be treated as fellow-believers.","PeriodicalId":41309,"journal":{"name":"REFORMATION & RENAISSANCE REVIEW","volume":"10 1","pages":"209 - 234"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75518409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The doctrine was advocated in some of Luther’s works of the 1520s and 1530s and found acceptance among some early English Protestants, but was destined to be repudiated by later Protestant orthodoxy, and was universally condemned by mainstream Protestant thinking of Shakespeare’s day. The article surveys the history of this heterodoxy in England, demonstrates its continuing significance in the late-sixteenth and early-seventeenth century, elucidates the references to the doctrine in Hamlet’s soliloquy, and discusses their relevance to the broader understanding of the religious subtext of the play.","PeriodicalId":41309,"journal":{"name":"REFORMATION & RENAISSANCE REVIEW","volume":"58 1","pages":"187 - 208"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84572291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent scholarship argues that Gregory of Rimini’s influence is greater than Aquinas. This essay provides strong evidence to the contrary for the influence of Aquinas on Vermigli’s early exposition of predestination as a Reformer. Vermigli not only drew upon Aquinas’s doctrine in general, as he does elsewhere, but reproduced the details of Aquinas’s article in the Summa on whether foreknowledge of merits is the cause of predestination. This finding has significance for understanding the development of Vermigli’s thought, his relation to Thomist scholasticism, and his mature writings on predestination. In general, this evidence increases the importance of Thomas as a formative influence on Vermigli’s thought.","PeriodicalId":41309,"journal":{"name":"REFORMATION & RENAISSANCE REVIEW","volume":"20 5","pages":"155 - 167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14622459.2018.1470599","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72409787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
