As a follow-up to this thread, http://www.puritanboard.com/f29/denn...essions-16821/
below is an announcement (from the March 2008 issue of the Northwest Theological Seminary newsletter) concerning James T. Dennison, Jr.'s forthcoming The Reformed Confessions of the 16th and 17th Centuries in English Translation: 1523-1552. Quote:
REFORMED CONFESSIONS PROJECT, VOLUME 1, AT THE PUBLISHER
For the past 5 years, Jim Dennison has been collecting Reformed confessions from the 16th and 17th centuries. These documents originate in many nations (Switzerland, Germany, Holland, England, Scotland, France, Hungary, Transylvania, Poland, Brazil, America) and are written in many languages (German, Latin, French, English, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Magyar, Portuguese). More than 125 confessional documents have been gathered and will be printed, in English, in a multi-volume set. Volume 1, entitled The Reformed Confessions of the 16th and 17th Centuries in English Translation: 1523-1552 will include 34 confessions beginning with Ulrich Zwingli's 67 Articles and concluding with John Calvin's Consensus Genevenis or "On the Eternal Predestination of God". In between will be the first English translation of the Bern Synod (1532), Juan Diaz's Summary of the Christian Religion (1546) and the Rhaetian Confession (1552). Also included in this initial volume will be the Confession of the East Friesland Preachers (1528), the 1st Confession of Basel (1534), the 1st Helvetic Confession (1536), all of Calvin's Catechisms (1537, 1538, 1541/45), the Confession of the London Congregation of John a Lasco (1551), the Confession of the Refugee Congregation Vallerand Poullain at Glastonbury England (1551), the Emden Catechism (1551) and many others. The Reformed Confessions project is being published by Reformation Heritage Publications of Grand Rapids, Michigan.
