Abstract
Heinrich Bullinger is an outstanding example of posthumous neglect by historical scholarship. Within the more narrow field of specialists, it is indeed recognised that we have him chiefly to thank for the consolidation of the Zurich Reformation, and to a considerable extent of the whole Swiss Reformation, and also that he was an important teacher and adviser for all the Reformed Churches of Europe. Nevertheless Bullinger has been to a large extent relegated to a subordinate role, not least indeed in university curricula and in current textbooks. Certainly research on Bullinger has provided basic outlines in the last decades – for example, the edition of his correspondence – but this does still not signify a general change of attitude.
