Lambert Daneau

After eight fruitful further years in Geneva from 1572, he made a reputation as preacher and theological writer.

[2] Scott Manetsch describes Daneau as a "champion of Calvinist orthodoxy, with the expansive vision of expanding and extending the domains of secular knowledge... on the basis of Scripture through the use of the scholastic method of dialectic."

Daneau wrote on many subjects, including a commentary on Peter Lombard's Sentences, and a political treatise justifying armed resistance against tyranny.

[3] Daneau wrote a book on witchcraft, Dialogus de veneficiis (1564).

His views on the topic of hunting witches caused trouble for him in Leiden.
