Zwingli Study Since 1918
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 July 2009
Extract
This bibliographical review of works on Ulrich Zwingli is partial evidence of a quarter-century of considerable scholarly activity directed toward the history of the continental Reformed churches. At first glance, the memorial volumes commemorating the 400th anniversary of the Zurich Reformation (1519–1919) and of the Reformer's death at Kappel (1531–1931) would seem to account for the inordinate number of Zwingli studies since 1918; but an equal volume of scholarship devoted, without such promptings, to Martin Bucer, or the Weber Thesis, or the Reformation in the Netherlands confirms the trend toward intrested historical inquiry, stimulated perhaps by the return to the mainstream of Reformation thought.

* Professor John T. McNeill intended to supplement his bibligraphical review of “Thirty Years of Calvin Study,” Church History, XVII (1948), 207–40Google Scholar, by a similar treatment of the historical literature concering the Reformed churches of Europe to the opening of the Thirty Years' War. As the work progressed, it became increasingly evident that the amount of material was too vast to be included in a single article. It was necessary, therefore, to divide the material, this being one of several similar studies in preparation. Professor McNeill started me on the way with some notes and has since given me guidance.
