By Herbert B. Workman

Book Overview

""Christian Thought to the Reformation"" is a comprehensive book written by Herbert B. Workman that explores the development of Christian thought from the early church to the Reformation. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the early church and the second part focusing on the medieval period leading up to the Reformation. In the first part, Workman examines the development of Christian thought in the early church, including the influence of Greek philosophy on Christian theology and the emergence of various Christian sects and heresies. He also discusses the role of key figures such as Augustine, Origen, and Tertullian in shaping Christian thought during this period. In the second part, Workman explores the medieval period leading up to the Reformation, including the rise of scholasticism and the influence of Aristotle on Christian theology. He also discusses the various reform movements that emerged during this period, such as the Waldensians and the Hussites, and their impact on Christian thought. Throughout the book, Workman provides detailed analysis and commentary on the various theological debates and controversies that shaped Christian thought during these periods. He also includes extensive footnotes and references to primary sources, making this book an invaluable resource for students and scholars of Christian history and theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
