The Reformed pastor and professor Jacobus Arminius (1559-1609) is remembered as an anti-Calvinistic theologian whose views were in conflict with the very essence of the Reformation. The question ...concerning Arminius's relation to the Reformation and to Calvin has occupied many already, and remains complex. This article illustrates that Arminius had great respect particularly for Calvin's exegetical prowess, and was in agreement with the most important parts of his theology. However, Arminius shows significant divergence from Calvin's view on God's relationship to evil and sin because of its consequences; as far as Arminius is concerned, God is-unintentionally-made the author of sin. According to Arminius this undermines the most important pillar of the Christian religion, namely, God's love for justice.

Lines in Shakespeare's Sonnet CXI bear a strong resemblance to lines in John Davies of Hereford's "Microcosmos" (1603). In the sonnet Shakespeare's Poet persona blames Fortune for making him reliant ...on 'public means which public manners breeds'. It has been widely supposed that Shakespeare is alluding to his career as player and playwright. Davies pays a backhanded compliment to Shakespeare as a poet of noble accomplishments, even though the stage 'doth taint pure gentle blood'. Davies's remarks, with their reminder of the social stigma attached to acting, were probably the stimulus for Shakespeare's sonnet, rather than a response to it, as editors have suggested. Contexts for both poems are examined, including Davies's further comments on actors.
