Description
Summary:Helm sets out in this study to develop further the approach to Calvin’s thought which he took in John Calvin’s Ideas (2004). Some of the material is an extension of topics treated in that earlier volume, while other subjects are handled for the first time. Rather than simply considering Calvin’s relationship with his predecessors, Helm now also considers Calvin’s intellectual links to later writers. The methodology remains, though, a comparison and contrast of Calvin’s ideas with those of earlier (and later) theologians, rather than an attempt to show exactly what Calvin’s literary sources were, and which later writers were directly indebted to him.
