| Summary: | The reappearance of Dr. Breen's pioneering study of young Calvin's humanism makes available to a new generation of teachers and students what is still the best introduction to the humanist theologian's formative years. The book was hailed at the outset by grateful readers as an informed and illuminating description of the elements that combined to shape and equip the mind of the reformer to-be. Any student of recent Calvin literature will have come frequently upon references to Breen's material and opinions. Although the newer scholars have made us increasingly aware of Calvin's importance as a historical figure, they continue to have recourse to this dissertation for guidance at significant points.
