Pierrick Hildebrand is an Associate Researcher at the Swiss Reformation Studies Institute at the University of Zurich and a minister in the Reformed Church of Bern. His research interests lie with the history and theology of the Reformed tradition in the Reformation and early post-Reformation.

This engaging and finely-crafted study sheds much-needed light on the enduring significance of Zwingli and Bullinger's contributions to covenant theology in the Reformation era. With verve and a well-honed mastery of the Zurich Reformers' writings, including a number of manuscript sources by Bullinger provided in the appendices, Pierrick Hildebrand persuasively argues for the vital role of Zurich's theologians in understanding the development of sixteenth-century covenantal theology.
