...one "past" in Kansas City... is a fabricated] success story of prophecies redeemed, boldness vindicated, and the city itself a continuing testimony to triumph over the wilderness...Wohl and Brown, "The Usable Past" (1960)And there is the REAL "past" of Kansas City, recalled by: THE MAN WHO WAS THEREJOHN CALVIN McCOYBut if you think 'Calvin' was a meek bookworm loafing around the cracker barrel, consider this: Child of the raw frontier, he grew up playing bone-cracking, skin-splitting games with Potawatomi boys.A pathfinder, he faced up to Black Dog-an Osage chief who towered 7 feet and weighed 300 pounds.A surveyor, he survived roiling dust storms, deadly floods and icy blizzards in the American wilderness. Yes, he alone saw impenetrable, tangled wilds along the Missouri River in 1830 give rise to Kansas City swarming with 100,000 residents in 1889.

John Calvin in Context

John Calvin in Context

Cambridge University Press
2019
sidottu
John Calvin in Context offers a comprehensive overview of Calvin's world. Including essays from social, cultural, feminist, and intellectual historians, each specially commissioned for this volume, the book considers the various early modern contexts in which Calvin worked and wrote. It captures his concerns for Northern humanism, his deep involvement in the politics of Geneva, his relationships with contemporaries, and the polemic necessities of responding to developments in Rome and other Protestant sects, notably Lutheran and Anabaptist. The volume also explores Calvin's tasks as a pastor and doctor of the church, who was constantly explicating the text of scripture and applying it to the context of sixteenth-century Geneva, as well as the reception of his role in the Reformation and beyond. Demonstrating the complexity of the world in which Calvin lived, John Calvin in Context serves as an essential research tool for scholars and students of early modern Europe.
