Castellion - Sébastien Castellion

French theologian. He fled to Geneva and taught classical languages ​​and the Bible, but came into conflict with Calvin over biblical interpretation, and moved to Basel, where he lived a lonely and difficult life. In addition to his innovative and simple French translation of the Bible, he became a pioneer of tolerance and pacifism with his works On the Heretics (1554), which criticized the intolerance of Calvinists and rejected the execution of heretics by secular authorities, and Exhortation to Troubled France (1562), which rejected religious wars and preached the inviolability of individual faith and conscience.

フランスの神学者。ジュネーブに亡命し古典語・聖書の教育に従事したが、聖書解釈についてカルバンと対立、バーゼルに移って苦しく孤独な生を送る。斬新(ざんしん)平易な聖書仏訳のほか、カルバン派の不寛容を批判して世俗権力による異端処刑を否定した『異端者について』(1554)、宗教戦争を否認し個人の信仰と良心の不可侵性を説いた『悩めるフランスに勧めること』(1562)によって、寛容・平和思想の先駆となった。
