Summary/Abstract: The volumes of the Reformer from Geneva were not only read by the priests and teachers of the Reformed Church, but also by the members of the other two Protestant denominations, without being charged with Crypto-Calvinism. This essay presents three such volumes from the library of Erasmus Johannis (cca. 1550-1601), the priest of the German Unitarian congregation from Kolozsvár, who had a very interesting lifecourse trajectory (Salzwedel–Leopzig–Emden, Frankfurt am Main–Genf–Antwerpen–Leiden–Krakow–Kolozsvár). His handwritten notes show that he has read through twice the major work of Calvin, the Institutes, while also revealing interesting facts about his own biography.
