Dans les huit essais rassemblés ici, Heiko Oberman évalue un demi-siècle de recherche sur le Calvinisme. Il explore les prémices de la pensée de Calvin – lorsque celui-ci appelle les églises persécutées de France et les communautés d’exilés partout en Europe – et par ce retour aux sources de la Réforme, Heiko Oberman cherche à identifier en quoi le Calvinisme a été le mouvement le plus rallié du Christianisme Protestant vers la fin du seizième siècle. Incisif dans ses arguments et perspicace dans son point de vue, les découvertes d’Oberman ont grandement contribué à la forme actuelle de la recherche sur Calvin et sur le Calvinisme.

Following Heiko Oberman's thesis on the Reformation of the Refugees, this paper explores to what extent John Calvin's experience of exile had influenced his ministry, theology, and hermeneutics. With the background of the unprecedented mass movement of vagrants and religious refugees during the sixteenth century, we demonstrate how Calvin as a refugee himself was especially keen on proving the abiding presence of God with his people in the same way the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob was with the exiles of the Bible. Moreover, taking into account the rising tide of anti-immigrant feelings by local communities everywhere on the continent, we show various ways -- for example, through his doctrine of election -- how Calvin sought to bolster a sense of dignity and religious identity while refugees at large were being stigmatized as criminals and outside the grace of God.
