[ED: Hardcover], [PU: Cambridge University Press], John Knox's First Blast of the Trumpet against the Monstrous Regiment of Women, one of the most notorious political tracts of the sixteenth century, has been more often referred to than read. Its true significance as one of a series of pamphlets which Knox wrote in 1558 on the theme of rebellion is therefore easily overlooked. This new edition of his writings includes not only The First Blast, but the three other tracts of 1558 -The Letter to the Regent of Scotland, The Appellation to the Scottish Nobility, and The Letter to the Commonalty of Scotland - in which Knox confronted the problem of resistance to tyranny. Related material, mostly drawn from Knox's own History of the Reformation in Scotland, illuminates the development of his views before 1558 and illustrates their application in the specific circumstances of the Scottish Reformation and the rule of Mary Queen of Scots. This edition thus brings together for the first time all of Knox's most important writings on rebellion. Table of contents: Part I: The 1558 Tracts (The First Blast of the Trumpet, The Letter to the Regent, The Appellation to the Nobility and Estates of Scotland, The Letter to the Commonalty, Summary of the Second Blast of the Trumpet) Part II: Knox and Scotland 1557-1564 (various letters and debates). This edition of the most significant political writings of the sixteenth-century Protestant reformer John Knox presents accurate but accessible versions of all of his writings on the theme of rebellion, and sheds important new light on the political and religious thought of the Reformation period. An edition of John Knox's most important writings on the theme of rebellion against tyranny. 290 pages Versandfertig in 3-5 Tagen, DE, [SC: 0.00], Neuware, gewerbliches Angebot, Offene Rechnung (Vorkasse vorbehalten)<
