Descripción
Sumario:The claim implicit in the title of the Synopsis purioris theologiae is that there is a difference between the theological disputations at Leiden conducted before the Synod of Dordt and those conducted after it. This essay examines various possibilities for the nature and extent of this difference. After comparing the disputations with regard to large thematic elements, overall structure, and specific theological topics, it appears that the differences between the two sets of disputations are not as great as might be expected. One must go to hotly debated topics to find differences in the disputations. The Leiden theological handbooks that resulted from the cycles of disputations could, before Dordt, be inconsistent or even incoherent due to the theological diversity within the faculty. What was “purer” after Dordt was a faculty that, on the contested questions of the synod, was uniform in its teaching, a consistency reflected in its theological handbook.
