Shapers of English Calvinism, 1660-1714 Variety, persistence, and transformation Dewey D. Wallace, Jr. - U.S.A Oxford University Press 2011 - 358tr. Hardcover 25cm
Dewey Wallace tells the story of several prominent English Calvinist actors and thinkers in the first generations after the beginning of the Restoration. He seeks to overturn conventional cliches about Calvinism: that it was anti-mystical, that it allowed no scope for the ''ancient theology'' that characterized much of Renaissance learning, that its piety was harshly predestinarian, that it was uninterested in natural theology, and that it had been purged from the established church by the end of the seventeenth century.
