The German Reformation and the Peasants' War : A Brief History with Documents Paperback / softback
by Michael G. Baylor
Paperback / softback
Description
The Protestant Reformation, begun with Martin Luther's posting of The Ninety-Five Theses in 1517, rapidly escalated into an evangelical reform movement that transformed European Christianity.
Less than a decade later, a massive rebellion of German commoners challenged the social and political order in what would prove to be the greatest popular rebellion in European history until the French Revolution. In this volume, Michael Baylor explores the relationship between these two momentous upheavals - one enduring, the other fleeting - and the centuries-long debate over whether and how they might be connected.
A collection of period documents offer first-hand accounts from the reformers, rebels, and the institutions they sought to topple.
