520 |a A careful reexamination of the manuscript records held in Geneva has revealed a number of surprising new views on Calvin's problems with his political opponents amongst Geneva's native ruling elites. One area of controversy has been seriously neglected by historians heretofore. Calvin was engaged, despite his silence on the matter, in a long-term dispute with leading Genevans about the names properly used in baptisms. In effect, he disallowed many traditional Genevan names as vestiges of Catholic superstition. This debate was of crucial importance because it lay at the root of many subsequent clashes between Calvin and his Genevan opponents. This article examines this dispute in detail and assesses the effect on Calvin's relationship with Geneva's ruling elite.
