Sermon to the Princes (Revolutions)

Sermon to the Princes (Revolutions)

Thomas MÃ¼ntzer was a radical pastor frustrated by the Reformation. He believed that Martin Lutherâ€™s stand against the Church did not go far enough and demanded the realization of the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. To that end, in 1524 he lead the Peasantsâ€™ War in Germany, an insurrection that culminated in his brutal execution. Gathered here, along with MÃ¼ntzerâ€™s final confession, are some of his key rousing sermons attacking the princes and preaching an early form of communism.

Wu Ming, the Italian authorsâ€™ collective, brought the Radical Reformation to life in their bestselling novel Q (written under the pseudonym Luther Blissett). In an introduction, they examine how MÃ¼ntzer has continued to inspire visionaries and radicals for the last 500 years.
