Summary
"It is equally true that the Reformation was inspired and defined by the Bible and that the Bible was reshaped by the intellectual, political, and cultural forces of the Reformation. In this book, a distinguished scholar - whose contributions to the field of religious studies have won him wide renown - explores this relationship, examining both the role of the Bible in the Reformation and the effect of the Reformation on the text of the Bible, biblical studies, preaching and exegesis, and European culture in general." "The book serves as the catalog for a major exhibition of early Bibles and Reformation texts that has been organized at Bridwell Library, Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University, and that will also be shown at the Yale Center for British Art, the Houghton Library and the Widener Library at Harvard University, and the Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Columbia University."--BOOK JACKET.
