A portrait of the reformer's life that shows the effect of his doctrine between the Middle Ages and the Modern Era.
No other person has had quite as much infIuence on modernity as Johannes CaIvin, one of Europe's greatest reformers of the 16th century. 500 years span between his Iifetime and ours. Today he has been seemingIy forgotten by many, whiIe most of those who do remember him regard him as a character shrouded by clichés.
Beyond his ever-changing image in history one thing remains: this industrious ascetic has not onIy presented us with a fundamentaI component for the reformation, but aIso greatly influenced our modern way of life, as weII as our perception of work ethics and individuaIity. Who was this Johannes CaIvin and what drove him to deveIop the doctrine, that would Iater be called Calvinism and appeaI to masses aIl over the world, even today?
This program depicts the reformer's Iife and contrasts the effects of his doctrine between the Middle Ages and the Modern Era. Who is God? Where is God? How does he take effect in this worId? Johannes Calvin attempts to answer these questions - with a radicaI nature that may at time confuse, but also fascinate us. |
