    Open AccessMack P HoltCHAPTERJohn Calvin in Context2019

    It is well known that the Reformed Church spread farther and faster than any of the other Protestant reformations, expanding to various Swiss cities, France, the Netherlands, the British Isles, much of the Holy Roman Empire, Hungary, and Poland-Lithuania during Calvin’s own lifetime or shortly after his death in 1564. And in the seventeenth century it flourished even farther afield, expanding permanently to North America and southern Africa. More…

  • Financing the Huguenot War Effort during the Early Wars of Religion, 1562–1570

    Hugues Daussy, Mack P HoltARTICLEFrench Historical Studies2015Cited by: 1

  • Alcohol: A Social and Cultural History
