Acta of the Synod of Dordt

Edited by Donald Sinnema, Christian Moser, and Herman J. Selderhuis in Collaboration with Janika Bischof, Johanna Roelevink, and Fred Van Lieburg. Volume 1 of this critical edition of all the synodal documents presents three versions of the acta of the synod, all of them in original Latin (preceded by a detailed introductory part in English): the original Acta Authentica, the printed 'Acta' and the abbreviated Acta Contracta. Since the 'Acta' as printed differs significantly from the Acta Authentica, the first edition of the printed 'Acta' (Leiden 1620) is included for the sake of easy comparison with the original. Also included are the acts of meetings of the state delegates, who represented the States General (Dutch government) at the synod, and their instructions from their superiors. - This Volume includes the original Acta Authentica of the synod, here published for the first time. Following the Acta Authentica, the corresponding acts, as first published in the Acta Synodi Nationalis ... Dordrechti Habitae Anno MDCXVIII et MDCXIX (Leiden, 1620), are reprinted; these published Acta were a significantly revised version, for stylistic and political purposes, of the original Acta Authentica. Also included are the Acta Contracta, a topical summary of the Acta Authentica, and the minutes of the meetings of the state delegates, who represented the Dutch government at the synod; neither of these has been previously published. This volume begins with a general introduction to the Synod of Dordt and its context, an introduction to the Acta Authentica, the published Acta and Acta Contracta, and an introduction to the role of the state delegates and the minutes of their meetings.
