Contents:
Farel in early French reform -- Farel's Summaire: theology in early French reform -- Farel's upward spirituality: leading in prayer: 1524 -- Farel's upward spirituality: unceasing prayer: 1529-1545 -- The Lord's prayer and the Apostles' creed (1524) -- Summary and brief exposition (1529/34) -- "The reason for which this work was written and had to be revised and why it was lengthened" (appended to 1542 Summaire) -- Liturgical practices and forms (1533).
Summary: Guillaume Farel (1489-1565) was one of the key figures in the early Genevan reformation, but his legacy has become largely overshadowed by towering figure of Calvin. Seeking to contribute to a better understanding of the French-speaking reform movement, this volume offers a rich portrait of Farel's early thought by way of interpretive essays and translations of primary source texts. The translations of the second half of the volume are some of the first widely-accessible full-length translations of Farel's work into English.
