Nadere Reformatie
Templat:17th Century Scholasticism
Nadere Reformatie (Reformasi Kedua Belanda atau Reformasi Lanjutan[1]) adalah periode dalam sejarah gereja di Belanda setelah Reformasi Protestan, dari sekitar tahun 1600 hingga 1750.
Sejarah
The period and its representatives are known for their desire to apply the principles of the Reformation to their day – their homes, churches, and, indeed, all sectors of Dutch society in the seventeenth and early eighteenth century. In their balance and value of both orthodoxy as well as piety, the Nadere Reformatie resembles English Puritanism and German Pietism.[2]
In fact, Puritanism had much influence on the Nadere Reformatie. Many Puritan works were translated into Dutch during this time. Moreover, many Dutch visiting students learned about Puritan ideas from English universities.[3]
The two leading figures of the period are a professor, Gisbertus Voetius, and a pastor, Wilhelmus à Brakel. Brakel's main work, the Redelijke Godsdienst, an explanation, defense, and application of the Reformed faith, has been translated into English.[4]
