Reviews
“This edition makes a very welcome contribution to our understanding of Arminius. It enables his thinking on controversial subjects to be placed in the context of his wider theology, and it reminds us once again that Arminius must be considered an integral part of the developing Reformed tradition.”
Stephen Hampton, University of Cambridge. In: Church History and Religious Culture, Vol. 92, No. 1 (2012), pp. 152-153.
“It is particularly valuable that this edition includes thirty-six of the disputations that have never before been published, and have not been considered in research on Arminius, his theology and his influence.”
Herman Selderhuis, Theological University Apeldoorn. In: The Journal of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. 63, No. 3 (July 2012), p 622.
