Chapter I: The Reformation

In addition to Neander, Mosheim, Milman's History of Latin Christianity, and Hardwick's Church History: The Reformation (rep. 1886), consult Ullmann's Reformers before the Reformation (Eng. tr. two vols. 1855), McCrie's Histories of the Reformation in Spain and Italy, Ranke's History of the Reformation (Eng. tr. one vol. ed. Routledge), and History of the Popes (Eng. tr. three vols. Bohn Lib.), Beard's Hibbert Lectures on the Reformation, Felice's Histoire des Protestants de France (trans. in Eng.), Krasinski's History of the Reformation in Poland, Professor H. M. Baird's History of the Rise of the Huguenots, two vols. 1880; also the current Lives of the leading reformers, and the special histories of the nations. Creighton's History of the Papacy during the Reformation (six vols.) has special merit as a fresh and full research. As to the witch-burning mania consult Lecky's Rise and Influence of Rationalism in Europe. On the Jesuits compare Nicollini's History of the Jesuits, 1853, and Mr. McCabe's A Candid History of the Jesuits (1913). On the medical work of Servetus and others see an interesting article by Dr. Austin Flint, in New York Medical Journal, June 29, 1901.
