Coornhert and the Collegiants: A Movement for Spiritual Religion in Holland by Rufus M. Jones is a comprehensive study of the Dutch religious movement known as the Collegiants, which emerged in the 17th century as a response to the rigid orthodoxy of the Dutch Reformed Church. The book focuses on the life and work of Dutch philosopher and theologian Dirck Volckertszoon Coornhert, who played a key role in the development of the Collegiant movement. Jones explores Coornhert's ideas about the nature of God, the role of reason in religion, and the importance of individual conscience and freedom of thought. The book also examines the broader social and political context in which the Collegiants operated, including their relationships with other religious groups and their involvement in the Dutch Republic's struggle for independence from Spain. Through a careful analysis of primary sources and historical records, Jones provides a detailed account of the origins, beliefs, and practices of the Collegiants, and their lasting impact on Dutch religious and cultural life.THIS 36 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Spiritual Reformers in the 16th and 17th Centuries, by Rufus M.
