Editorial Reviews

Review

"A good introduction to a study of this period which is so rich in writings on Christian living." Reformed Theological Journal

"In all, this is a superb collection of essays that will become indispensable for teaching Pietism and Protestantism in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It is the best introduction to Pietism in English available today." Lutheran Quarterly

“A most valuable resource for the study of Pietism, which brings out its international, cross-cultural and many-sided influence on Protestant Christianity.” Theology

Book Description

Pietism is the religious-theological movement that formed a bridge between the Reformations of the sixteenth century and the Enlightenment. This introduction to the Pietist theologians demonstrates the influence that this movement had on the religious, cultural, and social life of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and examines its lasting effects on modern culture and modern theology. Written by an international group of leading scholars, the book explores the transconfessional and transnational aspects of Pietism, considering the contribution of both Protestant and Catholic theologians in Puritan England, Pietist Europe, and Colonial America. Each chapter focuses on a particular theologian, from Arndt to Wesley, and incorporates up-to-date research and commentary. Comprehensive yet accessible, this is the ideal introduction to the study of this core theological movement.
