Inextricably linked to the educational revolution of that time, the Reformation brought about significant transformations in the way education was approached and disseminated. This comprehensive volume delves into the intricate confessional dynamics that shaped the educational developments of early modernity, encompassing a wide range of religious groups such as Calvinists, Lutherans, Anabaptists, and Roman Catholics. It goes beyond the traditional focus on the printing press and theological education of clergy in university settings, exploring the education of laypeople in academies, schools, and the home across various subjects, including theology, history, natural philosophy, and ethics. While well-known figures like John Calvin and Philipp Melanchthon receive due attention, this volume also highlights the significance of lesser-known figures such as Caspar Coolhaes and Lukas Osiander, who played crucial roles in the Reformation's educational endeavors. Moreover, it examines prominent centers of reform like Switzerland, Germany, and the Netherlands, as well as less-obvious locations such as the Czech Republic and Denmark, shedding light on the diverse geographical and cultural contexts in which the Reformation took place. By examining these various aspects, this volume provides a deeper understanding of the Reformation's impact on education and its role in shaping the intellectual and cultural landscape of early modern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 160 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783525560556\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44097279820026,"sku":"9783525560556","price":136.12,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_9d2f147f-d5d9-401c-b80f-27d597b38c20.jpg?v=1649010517","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/reformation-and-education-confessional-dynamics-and-intellectual-transformations-9783525560556","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
