Summary

What similarities and differences were there between the Reformation in England and in Germany in regard to Christian ethics? The authors of this volume trace general considerations about ethics on both sides and address concrete fields of activity such as marriage, law, economy, war and diplomacy.

Welche Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede gab es zwischen der Reformation in England und Deutschland hinsichtlich der christlichen Ethik? Die Autoren dieses Bandes gehen prinzipiellen Überlegungen zur Ethik auf beiden Seiten nach und widmen sich konkreten Handlungsfeldern wie Ehe, Recht, Wirtschaft, Krieg oder Diplomatie.

The authors of this volume deal with the similarities and differences between the Reformation in England and in the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation in regard to Christian ethics. Although it was understood by all sides that ethics was part of the Christian life, its place in theology was a matter of dispute, not only between the Reformation and its opponents but also among the various schools of thought in the Reformation. The articles in this volume deal with answers given by advocates of the Reformation in England and in Germany to the question of the theological place of ethics, and in addition with decisions and behavioral maxims here and there, such as for example ethics of law, the economy, war or diplomacy.
