Lay prophets in Lutheran Europe (c. 1550-1700) is the first
transnational study of the phenomenon of angelic apparitions in all
Lutheran cultures of early modern Europe. Jurgen Beyer provides
evidence for more than 350 cases and analyses the material in
various ways: tracing the medieval origins, studying the spread of
news about prophets, looking at the performances legitimising their
calling, noting their comments on local politics, following the
theological debates about prophets, and interpreting the early
modern notions of holiness within which prophets operated. A full
chronology and bibliography of all cases concludes the volume.
Beyer demonstrates that lay prophets were an accepted part of
Lutheran culture and places them in their social, political and
confessional contexts.
