Description

The volume brings together early statements of belief from across the Radical Reformation.
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.

This is the eleventh volume in the Classics of the Radical Reformation, a series of Anabaptist and Free Church documents translated and annotated under the direction of the Institute of Mennonite Studies.

Reviews

The Classics of the Radical Reformation series was inaugurated to make available major seminal texts from the Radical Reformation. Karl Koop's Confessions of Faith in the Anabaptist Tradition is the eleventh volume in the series. It 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, Toronto Mennonite Theological Centre
