Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book recounts the proceedings of an early Reformation-era disputation, the Disputation of Bern in 1528, through its day-to-day sessions. The disputation took place in response to widespread dissatisfaction with the Roman Catholic Church and contributed to the Protestant Reformation in a significant way. It was one of the first of its kind and clearly illustrates the theological divisions which led to the Protestant Reformation. The main focus is on the ten theses initially set forth by the Christian reformers, and the arguments put forth by both sides in support or refutation of those ideas. The main thrust of the theses is the idea that reformation of the Catholic Church should be an internal one, guided by the principles of Martin Luther and his fellow reformers, not an external one, directed by the Pope. At the time, these arguments were not only novel but incendiary, and the book provides a day-by-day retelling of the fascinating exchanges as each main theological point was debated by leading theologians of the time on both sides of the schism. For the reader interested in the history of Christianity or the history of Europe, this book is an insightful and engaging account of one of the key events of the Protestant Reformation.
