This book seeks to capture the apocalyptic expectation in the 16th
century German-speaking Europe, especially as articulated by the
groups and individuals collectively called the Radical Reformation.
Attention is paid also to Luther and his fellow-reformers to show
that apocalyptic expectation was not limited to the socially
disadvantaged strata of society. A summary of apocalyptic
expectation from the beginnings of the church through the Middle
Ages forms the essential background and setting for 16th century
hopes. The body of work consists of the discussion of four
apocalyptic themes. The first is a sketch of four individuals who
articulated visions of what was to be, Thomas M_ntzer, Hans Hergot,
Augustin Bader, and Jan Matthias. The second theme is Antichrist;
restitution is the third theme and the final theme is Spirit.
Co-published with the Institute for Anabaptist and Mennonite
Studies.
