Overview

This text examines the multifaceted reactions of political and religious leaders to the Anabaptist reign in M nster (1534-1535). It takes as its point of departure Protestant Strasbourg, Catholic Cologne, as well as the Rhineland, and then broadens the perspective to imperial estates and the empire. The author analyzes the representations of the Munsterites and juxtaposes the fierce language with the actions that were taken to eliminate the Anabaptist menace at home and in Munster. The book will be useful for scholars of Catholic Reform, of the empire and of confessionalization, of Cologne and Strasbourg, and of Anabaptism.
