Wolfhart Spangenberg (1567-1636?) is the anonymous author of the
"EselKonig" ("King Ass") (1625), the most vitriolic known satire
against Rosicrucians, Pansophists and Paracelsists, movements which
gained considerable currency in the early 17th century. The present
study examines Spangenberg's motives and objectives and relates the
"EselKonig" to his earlier satirical writings "Des Flohes Strauss
mit der Lauss" ("The Flea's Combat with the Louse"), "Lob der
Mucken" ("In Praise of Gnats"), and "GanssKonig" ("King Goose")."
