| Περίληψη: | 1 July 1523, Hendrik Vos and Johan van den Esschen died by burning at
the stake on the Grand-Place in Brussels. They were the first martyrs of
the Reformation.
Following this event, the Faculty of Protestant Theology and Religious
Studies (FPTR) in Brussels organized a colloquium to discuss what has
changed in the 500 years since the first martyrs of the Reformation.
After an historical introduction to set the scene regarding 1 July 1523,
this colloquium dealt with the consequences of the Reformation on
various and diverse topics that include secularization, the role of women, democracy, virtue ethics, interreligious dialogue, ending with a proposal on how to move forward.
This book can be a starting point for further scientific research, especially in the area of secularization, women’s emancipation, and the beginning of the Jewish-Christian dialogue.
I recommend this book to anyone interested in the Reformation and its
consequences.
