Theologians of the 16th and 17th Centuries: Lutheran and Reformed is a set of two charts: the first chart covers the Lutheran theologians; the second covers Swiss, German, and Dutch Reformed Scholasticism. For each theologian, the chart summarizes their schools, major works, and dogmatic significance.
