Anabaptist
Religions
A classic description of the Anabaptist movement. Walter Klalssen shows how Anabaptists combined elements of Protestantism and Catholicism into a third option that, he argues, has continuing relevance for the present. This is especially true in the areas of lay witness, peace and war, economics, and relationships with the state. Klaassen's hope that increasing numbers of Protestants and Catholics would enter into dialogue with the Anabaptist tradition has in fact been realized. Today Anabaptism is accepted as part of the common heritage of all Christians.

Anabaptist
History
Pilgrim Marpeck (ca. 1495-1556) was a dedicated Anabaptist leader who was also a talented civil engineer. Markpeck possessed a keen intelligence and a passion for spiritual and biblical theology. He was one of the most original and eclectic Anabaptist thinkers. On larger projects he wrote collaboratively, with a circle of like-minded Anabaptists. Consequently, authorship of some writings has to be ascribed not only to Markpeck, but to the "Markpeck Circle." Shortly after 1600, however, his writings and his "circle" seemingly disappeared. No distinct Marpeckite Anabaptist community survived the 17th century.

This volume of writings by Pilgram Marpeck and his Circle is the first of a planned set of three. All making available previously untranslated writings. Copyright 1999.

Biography
Walter Klaassen and William Klassen have deeply mined Markpeck's writing and dialogue with other Reformation leaders. They place his life, work and theology in the context of his violent, changing times. This thorough biography shows how Markpeck, perhaps more than any other early Anabaptist figure, helped lay the theoretical and practical foundations of the believers church.
