| Summary: | Calvin's Institutes was passed on by the nineteenth-century editors of the Corpus Reformatorum as a document without any descriptive apparatus or chapter summaries and subheads, leaving the task of writing an apparatus to modern translators and editors like Otto Weber and J.

The present essay describes the development of an apparatus for the Institutes between 1559 and 1585 and offers an assessment of the perception of the Institutes, its structure, and organization, that was offered by the old apparatus in the century after Calvin's death. |
