Fornication and Illegitimacy in Reformation Geneva: Cases from the Consistory, 1542–1558
This article examines cases of fornication and illegitimacy as they were regulated by the Genevan Consistory, a morals discipline court that John Calvin created in 1541 to eradicate sin from the community. We argue that ordinary people failed to live up to the moral standards of Calvinist reformers as they practiced illicit sex and had bastard children. The authorities did their best to correct such behavior and provide for illegitimate children.
