The theological orientation of the Italian reformation was far more diverse than is generally assumed. There were the Spirituali, the circle around the Spanish immigrant mystical theologian Juan de Valdés, fully-fledged Reformed Protestants such as Peter Martyr Vermigli and Jerome Zanchius, Lutherans, Anabaptists and heretics such as Faustus and Laelius Socinus. The theological profile of the Italian reformation has not been researched in sufficient depth. Obviously, such an exploration will require specific knowledge of the primary texts. Critical editions, however, are very rarely available. This collection offers a synopsis of the diversity of the manifestations of the Italian Reformation and will therefore facilitate research in this fascinating, still largely fallow area.
