By Jacob Salwyn Schapiro

Book Overview

Social Reform and the Reformation is a book written by Jacob Salwyn Schapiro and published in 1909. The book explores the relationship between the Protestant Reformation and the social reform movements that emerged in Europe during the same period. Schapiro argues that the Reformation played a crucial role in the development of these movements, as it challenged the authority of the Catholic Church and paved the way for new ideas about individual rights and social justice. The book examines the impact of the Reformation on various social issues, including poverty, education, and the treatment of women. It also explores the role of key figures such as Martin Luther and John Calvin in shaping the social reform movements of their time. Overall, Social Reform and the Reformation offers a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the complex interplay between religion and social change in early modern Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
