Riassunto

Calvinism: Six Stone Foundation Lectures is a book written by Abraham Kuyper, a Dutch theologian, journalist, and politician. The book is a collection of six lectures that Kuyper delivered in 1898 at Princeton Theological Seminary in New Jersey, USA. The lectures discuss the theological and philosophical foundations of Calvinism, a branch of Protestantism that emphasizes the sovereignty of God, predestination, and the total depravity of humanity. Kuyper begins by outlining the historical context of Calvinism and its development in Europe, particularly in the Netherlands. He then delves into the theological concepts that underpin Calvinism, such as the sovereignty of God, the depravity of man, and the doctrine of predestination. Kuyper also discusses the impact of Calvinism on society and culture, including its influence on politics, education, and the arts. Throughout the book, Kuyper emphasizes the importance of Calvinism as a comprehensive worldview that shapes every aspect of life. He argues that Calvinism provides a solid foundation for a Christian understanding of the world and offers a coherent and consistent framework for interpreting reality. Overall, Calvinism: Six Stone Foundation Lectures is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the theological and philosophical foundations of Calvinism. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and development of Protestantism, as well as those seeking a deeper understanding of the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
