The Life and Thought of Michael Sattler
The Life and Thought of Michael Sattler
Author: C. Arnold Snyder Herald Press
C. Arnold Snyder's full-length biography and analysis of the thought of Michael Sattler, the noted Anabaptist leader, martyr, and author of The Schleitheim Articles. This book is another case study in Anabaptist origins, as well as a being a biographical study of Michael Sattler. It is particularly stimulating in breaking new ground around the Roman Catholic (Benedictine) roots of Swiss and South German Anabaptism. This study, therefore, constitutes a major advance in Anabaptist historiography.
The author of this volume is gentle, unassuming, and deceptively modest in his approach, but clear and incisive in his findings. The book is a model of careful historical method and scholarship. In stimulating the kind of fresh analysis and research indicated, the author has placed all of his colleagues in the field in his debt, and added significantly to our understanding of the early sixteenth.
Like many of the other Theologians of the Radical Reformation, their names are well know to all true Historian and Theologians... Yet strangly missing in LOGOS.

Without rising to the bait of having you label everybody who who does not have a detailed knowledge of every sixteenth century eccentric as not being a true historian or theologian it should be pointed out that even major figures such as Hus or Zwingli are missing from Logos.

Not what I mean to say, however after reading it I can see your point. I was intending that anyone who pays the cost to simply have the best research tool compaired to those sho simply want a simple Bible Tool. I would guess the largerst majority would have knowledge of this very important time and not simply an idea that some sort of change took place with just Luther. I would say perhaps even a few more titles would be weel placed in the LOGOS library. How many books sould one have on this period and this reformation? I believe more than that is represented considering the size of my own library on LOGOS. Thanks for the reply and gentile repremand.. I'll think twice next time when I post blogs... Fred

My own guilty secret is that I would buy it.
