Summary "A History of the Reformation (Vol. 2 of 2)" by Thomas M. Lindsay is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume covers the Reformation in various countries including Switzerland, France, the Netherlands, Scotland, and England, with a focus on the theological movements and the political landscape during the 16th century. The narrative explores the distinct characteristics of the Reformed Churches compared to Lutheranism, delving into influential figures and events that shaped the Reformation. At the start of this volume, Lindsay emphasizes the importance of the Peace of Augsburg and its limitations, noting the ongoing resistance against the Catholic Church across Western Europe. He introduces the central figures of the Reformation, initiating discussions on important Protestant movements and their doctrinal distinctions. This introduction sets the stage for a detailed examination of key leaders such as Zwingli and Calvin, as well as the socio-political ramifications of the Reformation in various regions, preparing the reader for an in-depth exploration of this transformative period in history.
