Cornelius Henrici Hoen (Honius) and his Epistle on the Eucharist (1525): Medieval Heresy, Erasmian Humanism, and Reform in the Early Sixteenth-Century Low Countries: Studies in Medieval and Reformation Traditions, cartea 119

Autor Bart Jan Spruyt
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 oct 2006
This book is about Cornelius Henrici Hoen and his well-known treatise on the Eucharist, published in 1525, and answers questions like: Who actually was Hoen? What made him dissent from the current belief in transubstantiation? What were the sources of his dissent, and what was his relationship to famous contemporaries like Erasmus, Luther, Zwingli and Bucer? And how influential has his treatise been?
After a more detailed portrait of Hoen’s life, the chapters on the origins of his ideas establish that Hoen was not only dependent on Erasmus and Luther, but actually revived age-old heretical arguments, first proposed in the high Middle Ages and later defended by Hus and Wyclif, and popularized by Lollards and Hussites in the late medieval Burgundian Netherlands. The book also describes Hoen’s influence on Reformation thought, and contains an edition of the original Latin text and of a contemporary German translation.

Notă biografică

Bart J. Spruyt, Ph.D. (1996) in History, has published extensively on the history of christian humanism in the Netherlands, and on the political philosophy of conservatism. From 1994 he has been working as a political journalist and as the director of the Edmund Burke Foundation, a conservative think-tank based in The Hague.

Recenzii

‘This vastly expanded English version is of interest to scholars of the early Reformation, as it provides an account of the dissenting circles in the Low Countries (and their international contacts), and traces the origins and development of the reformed doctrine on the Lord's Supper. Spruyt has also unearthed some new biographical information, especially concerning Hoen's prosecution on suspicion of Lutheran sympathies.’
Demmy Verbeke, Harvard University, Renaissance Querterly

‘Much of the rest of the book is devoted to debunking [the] account of the specifically Dutch roots of Reformed theology. (...)
The book does provide two services. With regard to the Eucharistic controversy, it significantly revises the traditional understanding of the context and significance of Hoen's letter by associating it not with "intellectually respectable" biblical humanism but with the more "suspect" currents of late medieval religious dissent. On a more general level, it introduces an English-reading audience to recent Dutch research on the early Reformation in the Low Countries. Hoen's Christian Letter does indeed prove to be worth a book.’
Amy Nelson Burnett, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, H-German.
