N2 - Régis Burnet’s book has an encyclopaedic feel to it and that is no criticism. There are a number of very useful gems of information and insight. In the course of the first pages we are introduced to present-day Catholic intellectuals like Gérard Leclerc, then informed that two centuries before the Reformation Henry Ghent argued that Scripture was more trustworthy than the church, and that this coincided with a widespread rejection of institutions and traditions. We also have a rich feast in the footnotes: I was pleased to learn of Sylvie Parizet, La Bible dans les litteratures du monde (2016), and the series published by Cerf: Etudes d’histoire de l’exegese, and Hans-Theo Wrege, Wirkungsgeschichte des Evangelium (Göttingen, 1981) which I’d overlooked.
