Swiss historian
Emidio Campi (born 30 September 1943) is a Swiss historian. As a church historian, he is a specialist in the Reformation in Italy and Switzerland, and has researched and published articles on John Calvin, Peter Martyr Vermigli, Huldrich Zwingli, Heinrich Bullinger and other reformers.[1]
Life
He was born on 30 September 1943.[2] He is married with four children.[2]
Career
He attended the University of Tübingen and the University of Zurich.[2] He is currently the Emeritus Professor of Church History at the University of Zurich,.[2] and a director of the Institute for the History of the Swiss Reformation[3][4] His specialist area of research is the Protestant reformation.[5] Campi retired on 1 August 2009, following which he was undertook various positions as visiting professor in Montreal, Beirut, Buenos Aires, Lincoln (Nebraska), Grand Rapids (Michigan), New York City, Genoa, Modena and Seoul.[6]
Distinctions
He is one of the world’s leading scholars of the Church,[7] and particularly the Reformation (along with Peter Opitz and Christian Moser and Herman Selderhuis),[8] and has lectured extensively on the Reformation[5] and those who drove it, for instance, Arnold of Brescia,[9][10] and Luther.[3] Notably, he has suggested that the sixteenth-century Swiss Reformers Huldrych Zwingli and John Calvin were advocates of a Social market economy; for example, Calvin, Campi says, “would have decisively combated every system that takes social injustice as a given, because in his eyes, social injustice is an offense to the Creator.”[11]
