RELIGIOUS ENCYCLOPEDIA
Hutten Hyde
is set forth in the very words of the Augsburg Confession and the Formula of Concord. Besides translations of the work into various modern languages, there appeared many commentaries, compilations, and enlarged editions. Hutter's other important work, entitled Loci communes theologici (1619), is an enlargement of the compendium. In his polemical writings Hutter attacked the Calvinists and Roman Catholics and all tendency to harmonize the two Protestant confessions. Against the irenical efforts of the Heidelberg theologian, David Pareus, he wrote Irenicum vere christianum (1616), and against the Calvinists he addressed his Calvinista Aulico- Politicus (1610). When the Formula of Concord was attacked by Rudolf Hospinianus in a treatise entitled Concordia discors (Zurich, 1607), Hutter replied with his Concordia concors de origine et progressu Formulae Concordia ecclesiarum Augustance Confessionis (1614). In the same way he defended the Lutheran Church against Roman Catholic opponents such as Bellarmine, Gretser, and others.
