Description

Explore how biography became a powerful tool in sixteenth and seventeenth century religious conflict across Europe. This volume examines the explosion of biographical writing about reformers during the Reformation period, analysing how different confessions used life writing to shape lasting images of key figures like Luther and Calvin. Rather than offering a simple survey, this scholarly work investigates the critical issues and questions surrounding biographical trends among competing religious movements, revealing how these narratives were weaponised in confessional rivalries. The St. Andrews Studies in Reformation History series presents detailed academic analysis of how biographical works both promoted reformers as models worthy of emulation and condemned opponents as heretics, demonstrating the genre's central role in religious and cultural conflict of the era.
