Descriptionof Mörder ohne Opfer. Die Reichsstadt Mühlhausen und der Bauernkrieg in Thüringen
Manufacturer

Studies on the background, course and reception of the failed revolution of 1525. The Thuringian imperial city of Mühlhausen was the centre of the Peasants' War in Central Germany. From there, the radical reformer Thomas Müntzer moved with the insurgents into the surrounding countryside in the spring of 1525. For the first time, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the momentous uprising, its prehistory and its aftermath.

With the meticulous search for the supposed victims of the "murderous mobs of peasants" reviled by Luther, a deconstruction of a multitude of myths and legends surrounding the uprising, which quickly came to a bloody end with the Battle of Frankenhausen and Müntzer's execution, is always based on sources. For the imperial city of Mühlhausen, where Müntzer's ideas remained alive in secret for several decades, this defeat also marked the beginning of more than two decades of subjugation to princely foreign rule. Volume 40 of the "Schriftenreihe der Friedrich-Christian-Lesser Stiftung".
