John Calvin bibliography
The French ReformerJohn Calvin (1509–1564) was a theological writer who produced many sermons, biblical commentaries, letters, theological treatises, and other works.
Although nearly all of Calvin's adult life was spent in Geneva, Switzerland (1536–1538 and 1541–1564), his publications spread his ideas of a properly reformed church to many parts of Europe and from there to the rest of the world.
It is especially on account of his voluminous publications that he exerts such a lasting influence over Christianity and Western history.
