The first RefoRC Conference was held at Zurich 8-11 June 2011. The theme of the conference was “The Myth of the Reformation.”
The closing plenary lecture was given by Emidio Campi (the former director of the Institute for Swiss Reformation History at Zurich). His lecture was entitled “Was the Reformation a German Event?”
In the first point Campi considered if the reformation were a Protestant notion. A perceptive and incisive review as given of recent works on the Reformation. His thoughts were a development of what he has published as “Ecclesia semper reformanda: Metamorphosen einer alterwüriden Formel”, Zwingliana, Vol 30, 2010, pp1-19.
The second point examined whether the Reformation were an event or a process. The third point raised the question concerning the Reformation: German or European?
