The Pedagogy of Johann Sturm (1507-1589) and its Evangelical Inspiration

The period we are living in is perhaps the first in which the historian is well situated for understanding the sixteenth century. On the one hand, the various literary, political, and religious movements arising from the great historical crisis of the Renaissance all seem to have run their course, while the goals aimed at perhaps still lie ahead of us. On the other hand, the urgency of having cultural institutions better adapted to our world, both present and future, makes us better understand the rhythms of decomposition and creation which direct every age of widespread reform, and particularly that one.
