A comprehensive Who's Who of theologians, from Abaud to Zwingli!
ABAUD (early 12th century). An abbot who wrote a Treatise on the Breaking of the Body of Christ,
during the Eucharistic controversies surrounding the doctrines of
Berengar. He holds that, although the bread is the body of Christ, when
the bread is broken each one of its parts contains the totality of that
body.
ZWINGLI, ULRICH (1484-1531). The most important
first-generation leader of the Protestant Reformation in Switzerland and
founder of the Reformed tradition in Protestantism. He was born of a
middle-class family in Wildaus, Toggenburg, where his father and
grandfather were magistrates of the people. His theological and
political views were partly the result of his identification with the
Swiss people, characterized by their independent spirit and their love
for their country and its customs....
Written by almost sixty Latino scholars and edited by the renowned historian of doctrine Justo Gonzalez, The Westminster Dictionary of Theologians
is global in scope, including theologians from around the world
spanning the period from the early church to today. This monumental
dictionary features entries on nearly thirteen hundred theologians,
organized alphabetically, ranging in length from a paragraph to a full
page, and including a list of each theologian's major works.
