Reviews

Represents a significant effort in rehabilitating the reputation of Barnes. . It is a substantial contribution to the field.
*TRINITY JOURNAL*

This splendid study of Robert Barnes surpasses previous works in giving us a full and perceptive picture of a figure who [...] held an important place in the early English evangelical movement. [This] insightful work will be a definitive source on Barnes.
*JOURNAL OF CHURCH HISTORY*

A valuable and thoughtful study of the life and writings of an important figure in the development of the early English Reformation.
*RELIGIOUS STUDIES REVIEW*

Professor Maas is to be congratulated on a work of thorough scholarship, which has raised our awareness of this secondary figure, and filled a long standing gap in our knowledge of the English Reformation.
*ARCHIV FÜR REFORMATIONSGESCHICHTE*

Reveals more of the interconnected nature of the international Protestant movement in its early years.
*THE EXPOSITORY TIMES*

This is a tremendous monograph: well-researched, reliably informed, rigorously referenced and carefully nuanced. Maas not only succeeds in providing a much needed new assessment of the English Lutheran and his historical-theological programme, but opens up many new and exciting avenues for future research.
*JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY*

A complex and sophisticated analysis of [Barnes's] life, writings and the impact of his teachings in the religious and political debates of early sixteenth-century England and beyond. [...] It offers us a comprehensive study of this important figure.
*RENAISSANCE QUARTLERY*

Korey Maas' gut lesbare, klar strukturierte und beispielgesättigte Dissertation schließt eine Forschungslücke zu einem der wichtigsten englischen Protestanten des 16. Jahrhunderts [...] Zudem gelingt es Maas [...] Robert Barnes etwas aus dem theologischen Schatten seines Ordensbruders und Freundes Martin Luther treten zu lassen.
*SEHEPUNKTE*

This ably researched and well written book does full justice to [Barnes'] life and the writings that ensured his influence long after his death. [...] Once barely present in later Protestant historiography, Robert Barnes has now happily been accorded the recognition he surely deserved.
