In 1599 Bèze is 80 years old, with some physical problems, but he continues to be concerned about the fate of the reformed churches in Europe. Notwithstanding the promulgation of the Edict of Nantes, signed into law the preceding year...

The year 1595 was a difficult one: for Bèze, on whom old age imposed retirement and illness; for Geneva, no longer at war but not yet at peace: the city was involved in a system of truces needing to be renewed every three months...
Le roi Henri IV domine ce volume, comme le précédent. Il avait peine à faire admettre sa conversion aux protestants de France. Il lui vint l'idée de s’adresser à Bèze, qui savait de quel poids la politique pèse sur le destin d’un roi...
1593 was a decisive year for Geneva, with the end of the war with Savoy, and for France, with the end of the Ligue and Henry IV's victory. Henry’s victory, however, came at no small price: namely, his conversion...
Theodore Beza continues his indefatigable letter campaign seeking support for Geneva against the Duke of Savoy from his network of international admirers.
Geneva and Savoy were still at war in 1591, although devastation forced their armies to leave the region. Nevertheless, Geneva and Theodore Beza had to implore allies for help that would not come ; while Henry IV faced the Ligue, ...
The great event of 1589 was the war declared by Geneva against Savoy. Beza thus became a war correspondent, sending his friends letters from the front. Written in the style of the ancient Romans, his letters were much appreciated, read before the...
This 'Life of Theodore Beza', written by one of the editors of his correspondence, leads from the Paris of Francis I, where Beza wrote his sometimes religious but more often licentious Juvenilia, to Lausanne and Geneva, where in 1548 ...
In 1586 reformed and Lutheran theologians meet at last at Montbéliard. Despite high hopes, the meeting only exacerbates their differences of opinion. In Germany, Beza keeps his ear to the ground. France is torn between the Ligue, which is pretty much...
Above all, Bèze's correspondence is an anthology of historic documents from the end of the 16th century. However, one also finds theology; the previous volume included a little treatise on justification written to Doctor Crato, and in this volume his...
In 1584, Bèze has good cause for hope: France is at peace and the heir presumptive is a Protestant. Yet he also has causes for concern: the King of Scotland wants to return the Church to the bishops; ecclesiastical discipline is unpopular in England...
Tome XXIV of Theodore Beza’s Correspondance contains over a hundred letters and annexes. Many of these letters come from France where there is a great lack of ministers and the peace is fragile. Beza receives expressions of admiration and gratitude...

In 1580 were published Beza’s two main books: Icones and the Histoire ecclesiastique des Eglises reformees. The correspondence of the year establishes definitively that the Histoire ecclesiastique is Beza’s own...
This volume contains more than 70 documents from 1579 never published before. The reader gets an insight in the world of that...

These were tough times for French Protestants: Catholic opposition was growing and was due to become even stronger in the period of the League, Geneva was threatened by Guise and Nemours; but Beza was still hard at work and was soon to produce major...
1576 was of capital importance in the German theological "war". Could Bèze now help his friends? A curious detail, in this volume, on the clash between traditional medicine and alchemy...
In 1575, Bèze was worried about German protestants prosecuted by extreme lutherans, about the Churches of Berne and Zurich, whose leaders were about to die, about the Poles, the Scots...
After the Saint Bartholomew's massacre, about a thousand protestant refugees came to Geneva...
This twelfth volume of Beza's Correpondence covers the year 1571, a year of ardeous theological confrontations in which also occured the Synod of La Rochelle, under Beza's chairmanship.
The letters of Bèze during this crucial year reflect the vicissitudes of the third war of religion in France, until the "Paix de Saint-Germain". They also throw a light on theological debates that took place in Germany and Poland.
The letters of Théodore de Bèze to Bullinger, written in 1569 during the third war of religion, reveal many details obscured by the official records...
