Summary: | Thomas Münzter, who died in the Peasants’ Revolt in 1525, was remembered as the revolutionary firebrand of the Reformation. His theology is an important component of early modern theology, with its mix of the mystical and the apocalyptic, prioritising experience of God, and its subordination of Scripture and tradition to that experience. His legacy in terms of intellectual history has been more far-reaching than appears, evincing a pattern of religion which was to have a significant impact, albeit indirectly, on revolutionary theology in England in the seventeenth century and later. |
