The many aspects of the early Protestant spirituality (during the sixteenth century) make it difficult to present a systematic bibliography for that period. Interest in the early protestant spirituality has considerably increased among scholars during the last decades. We must therefore proceed to a severe selection. Only studies that deal with the most significant topics will be included. No breakdown of the material can be completely satisfactory. As the main point, however, is to give as clear a picture as possible, one must distinguish in sixteenth century protestant spirituality the following character: biblical, Christocentric, ecclesiastical. Subdivisions of the subject matter in each period will necessarily overlap. But we will reduce this to a minimum.
