Institutes of Elenctic Theology, 3-Volume Set
Turretin, Francis
This complete three-volume edition of Francis Turretin’s Institutio Theologiae Elencticae is the first to be published in the English language. The esteemed Genevan theologian(1623–87) contrasts a comprehensive Reformed theology with conflicting perspectives—affirming and demonstrating the truth by refuting false doctrine.
American Protestantism, especially Presbyterianism, owes much to Turretin's influence in that Charles Hodge and Robert L. Dabney assigned the Institutes to their students. It was at Hodge's request that Princeton's George M. Giger produced an English translation, which amounted to eight thousand handwritten pages. Now, more than a century later, James T. Dennison has undertaken the monumental task of editing, documenting, and indexing that translation of Turretin's timeless classic for the benefit of readers today.
