William Perkins byl vlivný anglický duchovní a teolog z Cambridge, který se stal jedním z předních vůdců puritánského hnutí v Anglikánské církvi. Byl silným zastáncem reformované teologie a protestantských ideálů, s důrazem na 'Kristus sám' a 'pouze Písmo'. Jeho spisy, z nichž mnohé vyšly posmrtně, ovlivnily náboženské myšlení své doby.



This ninth volume brings together nine of Perkins's lesser known practical treatises and, by so doing, introduces the reader to important facets of his religion of the heart. The Works of William Perkins fills a major gap in Reformed and Puritan theology. Though Perkins is best known today for his writings on predestination, he also wrote prolifically on many subjects. His works filled over two thousand large pages of small print in three folio volumes and were reprinted several times in the decades after his death. His complete works, however, have not been in print since the mid-seventeenth century.
