Beschreibung
How did the son of a coin-maker from central Germany, Thomas Müntzer, rise in just a few short years to become one of the most feared revolutionaries in early modern Europe? Andrew Drummond charts the life and times of the man Martin Luther denounced as a ‘Ravening Wolf’ and ‘False Prophet’. Far from the bloodthirsty devil of legend, he was a man of considerable learning and principle, deeply sympathetic to the misery of the peasantry and the poor.
