Radical Reformers

There were a lot of radical reformers in the reformation time, who had more radical claims than Luther or Zwingli. Some of them like Thomas Müntzer were involved in the German Peasants' War. Others like Andreas Karlstadt were non-violent and had some theological interferences with Huldrych Zwingli. Kaspar Schwenkfeld and Sebastian Franck were influenced by German mysticism and spiritualism.

Famous quotes containing the words radical and/or reformers:

    Radical Chic, after all, is only radical in Style; in its heart it is part of Society and its traditions—Politics, like Rock, Pop, and Camp, has its uses.
    Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)

    ... every woman’s organization recognizes that reformers are far more common than feminists, that the passion to look after your fellow man, and especially woman, to do good to her in your way is far more common than the desire to put into every one’s hand the power to look after themselves.
    Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)
