    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    In this fascinating collection, Auke Jelsma explores the byways and outer reaches of the Reformation: groups and individuals who, in an age of confessional strife, eschewed the certainties of the established churches and sought religious truth in unconventional ways and across confessional boundaries. The author, one of the most distinguished Dutch Church historians of his generation, casts a humane and sympathetic light on forms of belief that in their own day attracted censure from the orthodox of both sides, and have been little considered in subsequent general treatments of the Reformation. Subjects include the Congregation of Windesheim and its influence on Protestantism; the role of women in the Anabaptist kingdom of M??nster; the Devil in Protestantism; the Protestant attack on popular culture; marriage and the family; the sixteenth-century reception of St John of the Cross and Protestant spirituality.

    '...brilliantly and concisely handled here by one of the leading Dutch theologians and students of ecclesiastical history.' Bibliotheque d?Humanisme et Renaissance, Vol. 61, No. 2 '...readers...are likely to enjoy his remarkable eye for unusual sources and be stimulated by his observations.' Proceedings of the Huguenot Society, Vol. 27, No. 2 'The St Andrews Studies in Reformation History...is a fine series which has broken new ground in scholarship.' Journal of Theological Studies, Vol. 50 'Jelsma?s approach is very humane, tolerant and up-to-date...It is also imaginative...' Church History, Vol. 68, No. 4 '... a valuable addition to any university's library collection.' Canadian Journal of History
