Explanation:

1- John Wycliffe was an English translator, theologian and reformer who founded the Lollard movement, and is considered by many authors as the spiritual father of the Hussites and, ultimately, Protestants. Beginning in the 16th century, the Lollard movement was considered the precursor of the Protestant Reformation. Wycliffe was, consequently, characterized as the father of the English Reformation.

2- John Hus was a Czech theologian and philosopher, rector of the Charles University of Prague. As a reformer and preacher he is considered one of the precursors of the Protestant Reformation. His followers are known as Hussites. He was burned at the stake after being convicted of heresy at the Council of Constance.

3- Martin Luther was an Augustinian Catholic theologian and friar who began and promoted religious reform in Germany and whose teachings inspired the Protestant Reformation and the theological and cultural doctrine called Lutheranism.

4- Ulrich Zwingli was the leader of the Swiss Protestant Reformation and the founder of the Swiss Reformed Church. When studying the Scriptures from the point of view of a humanist connoisseur, he reached, independently, conclusions similar to those of Luther, who was a doctor biblicus.

5- John Calvin was a French theologian, considered one of the authors and managers of the Protestant Reformation. The fundamental doctrines of later reformers would identify with him, calling these doctrines "Calvinism".

6- John Knox was a Scottish preacher, leader of the Scottish Reformation and considered the founder of Presbyterianism. Influenced by the first reformers, like George Wishart, he joined the reformist movement of the Scottish Church. He was involved in ecclesiastical and political events related to the death of Cardinal Beaton in 1546 and in the intervention of the regent of Scotland, Mary of Guisa. He was taken prisoner by the French forces the following year, and after his release in 1549 he was exiled to England. He is recognized as the Father of the Reformation in Scotland.
