"While Langland, Aquinas, Calvin, and Milton are the major figures in the chapters devoted to them, Aers's reach extends to many more thinkers.... Versions of Election serves as a solid primer for the entirety of predestination theology over the period." —Milton Quarterly"This is a marvelous and original monograph, both deeply learned and eloquently written. I have no doubt that Versions of Election will be of interest to a wide range of scholars and students of religious history and thought, both in the medieval and early modern periods." —Nicolette Zeeman, author of The Arts of Disruption"Aers has spent his career exploring soteriological questions of election and his expertise shines on every page through detailed and sophisticated readings of complex doctrinal texts." —Sixteenth Century Journal
