A unique compendium of contemporary scholarship on the Reformation
Hans J. Hillerbrand is Professor and Chair, at the Department of Religion, Duke University.
an authoritative survey of the state of the field ... my overall assessment of The Oxford Encyclopedia of the Reformation is very high: I consider it simply the best general reference work on the Reformation as such available in any language ... it gives the best overall coverage of the Reformation both as a period and as a movement. It should be on the shelves of every scholar and serious student of the Reformation and in the reference section of every public and university library. Zdenko Zlatar, The Journal of Religious History, Vol. 21, No. 3, October 1997 the clarity that it brings to the profoundly complex theological issues that bedevilled the sixteenth century is remarkable. Any student (let alone layman) who wants to have Thomism, Justification, Predestination, or Transubstantiation explained need look no further than these volumes. Times Literary Supplement
