Anabaptism & Reformation in SwitzerlandAn Historical and Theological Analysis of the Dialogues between Anabaptists and Reformers by John Howard Yoder |
"...the most important book by Yoder published in more than twenty years!" --Mark Thiessen Nation, Assoc. Professor of Theology, Eastern Mennonite Seminary; Compiler, A Comprehensive Bibliography of the Writings of John Howard Yoder
Available for the first time in English, John Howard Yoder's study provides a unique perspective on Anabaptist origins. In the course of his historical investigation into the dialogues between the earliest Anabaptists and the Swiss Reformers, Yoder uncovers the issues that would emerge fully in his later work as a theologian and ethicist. This is required reading for those who wish to understand the historical origin and evolution of John Howard Yoder's thought.
"John Yoder's study of seemingly marginal theological debates in the sixteenth century allowed an entire generation of historians and theologians to understand Anabaptism in a new way." --Neal Blough, director of the Paris Mennonite Centre and Professor of Church History, Faculté Libre de Théologie Evangélique
