On True and False Religion: De Vera et Falsa Religione 1525 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798325594304)

"On True and False Religion" is perhaps Ulrich Zwingli's most well-known work. Published in 1525, a few years after Melanchthon's influential "Locis" and a decade before Calvin's renowned "Institutes," this work takes its place in the context of the Reformation in its embryonic stage, where the need to deeply understand the central doctrines of Christianity was on the rise.

In exploring this work, we find a deep dive into the essence of beliefs and teachings that would define the Protestant movement. With its publication, Zwingli offers us a glimpse into Reformed theology in its genesis, addressing crucial topics such as the knowledge of God and humanity, the interpretation of commandments, religious symbols, and especially the singular view of the Eucharist.

In the setting of the Protestant Reformation, this work plays a crucial role. By providing a penetrating look into the true nature of religion, Zwingli contributed to shaping the theological and spiritual thought of his time. "On True and False Religion" is not just a historical record of emerging Reformed beliefs but a living source that still enlightens modern understanding of the Reformation and its influence within Zurich.

In this journey to the heart of the Reformation, "On True and False Religion" stands out as a central piece. It is an invitation to explore the roots of Reformed faith and discover the seeds of ideas that would eventually grow and flourish into a movement that transformed the religious and cultural landscape of the time. Our translation of the original Latin version from 1525 offers a unique opportunity to delve deeply into the mind of Ulrich Zwingli and glimpse the beginning of a theological revolution that reverberates to this day.
