Of key concern is how a Huguenot hybrid identity was formulated by balancing a strong sense of religious particularism with an enthusiastic political loyalism. Must argues that sermons were an integral part of asserting this unique confessional position in both their preached and printed forms. To demonstrate this, Must explores a variety of sermon themes to access the range of images and arguments that preachers employed to articulate a particular vision of their community as a religious minority in France.St. Andrews studies in Reformation history.HuguenotsSermonsIdentification (Religion)FranceChurch history17th centuryHuguenotsIdentification (Religion)274.407Must Nicholas1549701MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910796047903321Preaching a dual identity3807969UNINA
