The Divine Feudal Law by Samuel Pufendorf

The Divine Feudal Law sets forth Pufendorf’s basis for the reunion of the Lutheran and Calvinist confessions. This attempt to seek a “conciliation” between the confessions complements the concept of toleration discussed in Of the Nature and Qualification of Religion in Reference to Civil Society.

Samuel Pufendorf (1632–1694) taught natural law and was court historian in both Germany and Sweden.
