Sinossi

Excerpt from History of the German People, From the First Authentic Annals to the Present Time, Vol. 7: The Reformation and Counter Reformation

There is no doubt that in the radicalism of ref ormation of the so-called Baptists the very old ascetic ideal, on which the medieval View of the world was based, again became very active for the purpose of improving the favorable opportunity of church revolution, and at the same time preventing the reformatory reconciliation between Christianity and the world. It would be difficult to determine whether the different forms of this evangelical radicalism were in some measure due to the ever recurring consequences of religious unrest, or simply to the privilege of studying the Scriptures as pro claimed by Luther. Certain symptoms, such for instance as an increased inclination to recognize in every day occurrences the direct action of higher powers, or an enlarged susceptibility for ecstatic conditions, were sure to recur during religiously agitated periods.
