Abstract

A Post-Bellum Historian

Fay, Sidney B. | August 10, 1921 issue

add to cart close window

The article focuses on the book "The Age of the Reformation," by Preserved Smith. Most historians of the Reformation begin with chapters on Germany and Luther and fill the rest of the volume with an account of the progress of the Reformation in the other countries of Europe, thus treating the Reformation as a series of national religious movements. Not so Mr. Smith. Very advisedly and skillfully, he has adopted a different plan. He parts his volume in the middle. In the first half, to be sure, he follows convention in outlining the political and religious development of the successive countries from Lutheran Germany to Catholic Spain.
