Recent research on Genevan theologian Benedict Pictet (1655–1724) concludes that he is a “transitional” theologian between the high Reformed orthodoxy of his uncle, Francis Turretin, and the “enlightened orthodoxy” of his cousin (and son of Francis) Jean-Alphonse Turretin. This essay shows that Pictet is remarkably consistent with Francis on the issues of the relationship of faith and reason and natural theology, and thereby calls into question Pictet’s place in the typical narrative of Reformed orthodoxy’s small steps towards rationalism.

本尼迪克特·皮克泰

最近对日内瓦神学家本尼迪克特·皮克泰 (Benedict Pictet，1655-1724 年) 的研究得出的结论是，他是他叔叔弗朗西斯·特雷廷 (Francis Turretin) 的高度改革宗正统教派和他的堂兄（弗朗西斯·弗朗西斯之子）让-阿尔方斯·图雷廷。这篇文章表明，皮克泰与弗朗西斯在信仰与理性的关系以及自然神学问题上非常一致，从而质疑皮克泰在改革宗正统派向理性主义迈出的一小步的典型叙述中的地位。
