| Σύνοψη: | As its name implies, the Reformed tradition grew out of the 16th century Protestant Reformation. The Reformed churches consider themselves to be the Catholic Church reformed. The movement originated in the reform efforts of Huldrych Zwingli (1484-1531) of Zurich and John Calvin (1509-1564) of Geneva. Although the Reformed movement was dependent upon many Protestant leaders, it was Calvin's tireless work as a writer, preacher, teacher, and social and ecclesiastical reformer that provided a substantial body of literature and an ethos from which the Reformed tradition grew. Today, the Reformed churches are a multicultural, multiethnic, and multinational phenomenon. The second edition of the Historical Dictionary of the Reformed Churches contains information on the major personalities, events, facts, movements, and beliefs of the Reformed churches. This is done through a list of acronyms and abbreviations, a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, a bibliography, and over 800 cross-referenced dictionary entries on leaders, personalities, events, facts, movements, and beliefs of the Reformed churches. Robert Benedetto is director of the Flora Lamson Hewlett Library, Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, California. He was previously director of special collections at Princeton Theological Seminary and associate librarian at Union Theological Seminary in Virginia. Donald K. McKim is Academic and Reference Editor for Westminster John Knox Press, Louisville, Kentucky. He was previously academic dean and professor of theology at Memphis Theological Seminary and professor of theology at the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary. |
