The Christian Renaissance: A History of the Devotio Moderna by Albert Hyma is a comprehensive account of the religious movement known as the Devotio Moderna, which emerged in the Netherlands in the late 14th century. The book examines the origins, development, and impact of this movement, which sought to reform the church and promote a more personal and inward-focused spirituality among its followers.Hyma explores the key figures and institutions associated with the Devotio Moderna, including the Brethren of the Common Life, the Windesheim Congregation, and the Modern Devotion movement. He also delves into the theological and philosophical ideas that underpinned this movement, such as the importance of humility, simplicity, and the imitation of Christ.The Christian Renaissance offers a detailed analysis of the Devotio Moderna's influence on the wider Christian world, including its impact on the Protestant Reformation and the Catholic Counter-Reformation. Hyma argues that the Devotio Moderna represented a significant shift in religious thought and practice, one that paved the way for the modern era.Overall, The Christian Renaissance is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity, the Renaissance, and the development of modern spirituality. Hyma's clear and engaging writing style makes this book accessible to a wide range of readers, from scholars to general readers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
