One of the major challenges faced by the emergent Protestant faith was how to establish itself in a hitherto Catholic world. This study explores the life and works of one of the earliest and most influential Protestant historians, Johann Sleidan to reveal how history was used to consolidate the new confession and the states which adopted it.
