#11 - Confessions of Faith in the Anabaptist Tradition: 1527-1660
PART OF SERIES Classics of the Radical Reformation Series
ed. Karl Koop
2006, 366 pp
This volume seeks to bring together for the first time a representative collection of confessions produced by Anabaptist groups from 1527 to 1660. Included are
confessions from the Swiss Brethren, the Marpeck circle, the Rhinelanders, and various Mennonite communities in the north. This collection attends to the earliest phase of Anabaptist and Mennonite confessional writing in Europe, laying bare the foundations that set the stage for later confessional developments. An introduction to each confession provides context for its emergence.
"The Classics of the Radical Reformation series was inaugurated to make available major seminal texts from the Radical Reformation. This volume breaks new ground both in its subject matter and the span of time it documents. Perplexingly little attention has been paid by twentieth-century academics or church leaders to the Mennonite confessional tradition. Koop’s masterful study documents this communal form of theologizing at an opportune time, when interest is rising in the development of Anabaptist thought beyond its first, formative generations." —John D. Rempel, General Editor
