Gents,
Through my seminary search, it's apparent that Turretin's "Institutes of Elenctic Theology" is not appreciated nor used like it was when it enjoyed its status as THE textbook of Old Princeton Seminary.
Does anyone know why this is? I see a lot of Calvin (a main-stay, and rightfully so!), Bavinck, and Berkhof as a part of most seminary curriculum.
Do any seminaries currently use this? Has anyone here gone through this text in the context of a seminary classroom?
