Produktbeschreibung
This Companion brings together new contributions from internationally renowned scholars in order to examine the past, present, and future of Protestantism. The volume opens with an investigation into the formation of Protestant identity, looking at its historical development across Europe, North America, Asia, Australasia, and Africa. This section includes coverage of leading Protestant thinkers, such as Luther, Calvin, Schleiermacher, and Barth. The Companion then goes on to consider the interaction of Protestantism with different areas of modern life, including the arts, politics, the law, and science. The editors and contributors take seriously the shift in Protestantism from a predominantly North Atlantic perspective to a more global reality. A final section looks to the future of Protestantism, debating what will happen to both Western and non-Western Protestant movements.

Rezensionen
"The value of the work lies in the amount of information itcontains, and in the readiness of the many writers, coming frommany denominations (Anglican and other) to identify themselves asconvinced, though self-critical, Protestants. It will be a tonic tothose who have got used to hearing 'Protestant' treated as a dirtyword."
Roger Beckwith, Oxford, Anglican Evangelical Journal forTheology and Mission
