This book explores how John Calvin and his Reformed colleagues were forced to adjust their theories and expectations concerning oaths and the conscience in their encounter with the practical problem of how the sphere of private judgment (i.e., the conscience) should relate to the demands of civil and church leaders for confessional uniformity in the service of public reform.
