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.

Set Features

  • This is the only English translation of Francis Turretin's Institutio Theologiae Elencticae.
  • Edited by James T. Dennison Jr. and translated by George Musgrave Giger.
  • New edition features a brown linen hardcover with gold foil and a satin ribbon bookmark.
  • New edition retains the same interior design and pagination.

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.

About the Author

His Institutio Theologiae Elencticae, first published in 1679–85, was the fruit of some thirty years’ teaching at the Academy of Geneva.
