| Riepilogo: | That forgotten place between heaven and hell: resistance and compromise during the Augsburg interim -- The sin unconfessed: Meckhart and the act of confession -- Dance of the Augsburg preachers: the Melhorn controversy and the culture of confessionalization -- The Meckhart confession: negotiating moderation -- A rudderless ship in stormy seas: conflict, crisis, and concord at the dawn of the confessional age -- Hellhounds in the House of Fugger -- The path of resistance: Augsburg's divergent evangelical responses to the counter-reformation -- The calendar riot: conceptually expanded, contextually explored -- Caught in no-man's land: the vocation controversy.

It argues that the real drama of confessionalization was not simply that which played out between princes and theologians, or even, for that matter, between religions; rather, it lay in the daily struggle of clerics in the proverbial trenches of their ministry, who were increasingly pressured to choose for themselves and for their congregations between doctrinal purity and civil peace"-- |
