Conscience Against Tyranny or Castello Calvin

Conscience Against Tyranny or Castellio Calvin is read in the 16th century, when the dictatorship of the French Reformer Jean Calvin reigned. It takes you to 19th century Geneva. Calvin's intolerance to different views reaches its peak when the humanist clergyman Miguel Servetus is sentenced to death due to his views that contradict official doctrine. At this very point, Sebastian Castellio takes his place on the stage of history opposite Calvin.

This book can also be understood as Zweig's criticism of the totalitarian regimes, including national socialism, that would determine his life. Conscience Against Tyranny or Castellio Calvin, in which the dangers brought by rigid ideologies are revealed and freedom of thought and tolerance for a humane life are underlined, are universal with these features.
