#140 The Convenient Morality of the Protestant Reformers - Joe Heschmeyer
Shameless Popery
Gender, Power, and Knox's Paradox
This chapter examines John Knox's opposition to female leadership, particularly in his hostility towards Mary, Queen of Scots, rooted in her gender. It contrasts Knox's views with those of other Protestant reformers like John Calvin, revealing the complex interplay of theology and political necessity during the Reformation. By scrutinizing historical correspondence, the chapter illustrates how ideological stances on women's governance were often influenced by shifting political realities.
