In reference to my last post, where I indicated a desire to study the work of Peter Martyr Vermigli at the postgraduate level, I offer the following as one of the reasons I wish to do so:

In view of Vermigli's repeated exiles and many associations, few reformers of his stature had such a notable voice in the European Reformations. He not only allows the modern scholar to peer into the remarkable diversity of the Catholic Church (1517-1542), but equally into the diversity among Lutheran and Reformed and then more specifically, among the various versions of the Reformed branches in such places as Strasbourg, Oxford and Zürich. This peripatetic reformer, I would argue, is an untapped medium for a better understanding of the Reformations of Europe.
