Ulrich Zwingli And The Reformation In Switzerland I A few individuals with distinctive, complex minds and troubled consciences dominate the early history of the Reformation.* The learning and wit of Erasmus, the personal religious anguish of Luther, the intense, practical efficiency and cosmopolitanism of Zwingli and Calvin, and the social fury of Thomas Müntzer often seem to dwarf not only the hundreds of lesser figures who in fact accomplished the ecclesiastical and social reforms of the sixteenth century, but to detach these men themselves from any recognizable social background and intellectual tradition. Ulrich Zwingli’s career is the history of the personal intellectual and religious growth of one such individual, yet it is also deeply rooted in the urban life of the city of Zürich and the more complex political history of the Reformation in Switzerland. Like Erasmus and Luther, Zwingli influenced the thought of reformers and Catholics alike, and the dissident strains of the Zürich reform movement influenced many communities and touched the reformation of England and Scotland. Yet the novelty of Zwingli’s ideas and the wide appeal some of them held for other reformers sometimes distract attention from his intense regional outlook, his influence on the city of Zürich, his uniquely Swiss career and personality. With Erasmus and Luther, Zwingli represents both traditional and novel strains of religious thought and programs for ecclesiastical and social reform. Far more than they, however, his life was bound up with the structure of a single city, and his importance becomes fully clear only in the context of his theocratic reforms in Zürich. Desiderius Erasmus (1466(?)-1536) was the greatest scholar of his day.1 His work on the textual criticism of Scripture and the writings of the Church Fathers, his broad and lively secular learning, his scathing attacks on ecclesiastical and social abuses, and his unfulfilled concept of the regeneration of Christian society touched nearly all thinking men of the sixteenth century. Those whom his scholarly works did not or could not reach were stung by his mastery of scornful, withering Latin satire, a vein which was to contribute much to both the vernacular and the Latin literatures of the sixteenth century. Martin Luther (1483-1546), steeped in late medieval scholastic theology and possessed of an extraordinary personal religious sensibility, attacked Church dogma and ecclesiastical practices, not only on the basis of textual inaccuracies and institutional perversity, but also on the strength of his own profound reinterpretation of Pauline theology, firmly rooted in his own religious experience and his study of Scripture.2 The intellectual and institutional world in which these men lived and worked was that of late medieval Christendom. They reflected and extended that world, and the influence of their work helped to change it forever. Erasmus was a former monk released from his vows who practiced the still-novel career of an independent man of letters. Luther was a professor of theology at the new University of Wittenberg in Saxony. His theological development was highly personal, and he PLL v6.0 (generated September, 2011) 6 http://oll.libertyfund.org/title/1682 Online Library of Liberty: Selected Works of Huldrich Zwingli concentrated his energies upon the reform of dogma and the eradication of institutional abuses. He became content, as he grew older, to leave the civil framework of reform in the hands of those powers which had ruled his world for several centuries—the princes of the independent German states. Both men’s thought reached out into a wider and more cosmopolitan world. Erasmus was the friend of popes, the emperor’s tutor, a correspondent of kings, prelates, civil servants, and scholars alike. Luther came quickly to the attention of the highest authorities in the Christian world, and only the support of his prince, the Elector Frederick the Wise of Saxony, and the sluggishness of imperial institutions protected him from these powers. Both Erasmus and Luther began as characteristic types of late medieval culture, and the surroundings in which they lived and worked exerted a considerable influence on the development and the wide impact of their ideas. Ulrich Zwingli (1484-1531) shared at different times the interests of both Erasmus and Luther, and he too lived and worked in a social setting which was a recognizable type of late medieval society. Born in rural northeastern Switzerland, Zwingli spent his career as a reformer in Zürich, a small, independent city-state ruled by a commercial patriciate and extending its political and economic control across a wide countryside.

Bellingham, MDiv Faculty of Religious Studies McGill University, Montreal February 27, 2014 Submitted to the Faculty of Religious Studies at McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts There is a reception of Christ as tendered in the promise of the gospel; but here [in the Lord’s Supper] is a peculiar way of his exhibition under outward signs, and a mysterious reception of him in them, really, so as to come to a real substantial incorporation in our souls. This is that which believers ought to labour after an experience of in themselves; …. they submit to the authority of Jesus Christ in a peculiar manner, giving him the glory of his kingly office; mixing faith with him as dying and making atonement by his blood, so giving him the glory and honour of his priestly office; much considering the sacramental union that is, by his institution, between the outward signs and the thing signified, thus glorifying him in his prophetical office; and raising up their souls to a mysterious reception and incorporation of him, receiving him to dwell in them, warming, cherishing, comforting, and strengthening their hearts. – John Owen, DD, Sacramental Discourses XXV.4 ii Table of Contents Acknowledgments iv Abstract v Résumé vi Introduction: John Owen and the Lord’s Supper 1 Chapter 1: The Life and Times of John Owen 9 Chapter 2: John Owen’s Sixteenth Century Inheritance 35 Chapter 3: The Lord’s Supper in Reformed Orthodoxy 80 Chapter 4: John Owen’s Eucharistic Theology 96 Conclusion 133 Bibliography 137 iii Acknowledgments I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the following people without whom this project would not have been possible.

    Die Reformation in Schaffhausen Und Ihre Besonderheiten

    ISSN 0254–4407 – Zwingliana 39 (2012), 79–92 Die Reformation in Schaffhausen und ihre Besonderheiten Erich Bryner 1. Politisch exponierte Lage Schaffhausen liegt keine 50 km nördlich von Zürich, hat aber in der Reformationsgeschichte eine eigene Entwicklung durchlaufen. Stadt und Landschaft Schaffhausen wurden 1501 als zwölfter Ort in die Eidgenossenschaft aufgenommen, also nur zwei Jahrzehnte vor der Reformation. Durch seine geographische Lage war Schaff- hausen politisch stark exponiert. Es liegt nördlich des Rheins; mit Zürich war es mit einer schmalen Rheingrenze verbunden, auf mehr als drei Seiten von habsburgischen Landen umgeben, in de- nen die Reformation nicht Fuß fasste, mit deren Bevölkerung je- doch ein reger Handelsverkehr und viele persönliche Beziehungen bestanden. Die Landschaftsgebiete wurden durch Kauf erworben und hatten oft keine natürlichen Grenzen. Die bischöfliche Herr- schaft Neunkirch-Hallau kam erst 1525 zu Schaffhausen. Aus die- sen Gründen führte die Schaffhauser Regierung in den Angelegen- heiten der Reformation eine konservative Politik.1 1 Vgl. die Karte »Die Entwicklung des Stadtstaates Schaffhausen«, in der die terri- torialen Verhältnisse und die Erwerbungen bis 1530 eingetragen sind, in: Hektor Am- mann, Karl Schib, Historischer Atlas der Schweiz, Aarau 21958, 47. 80 Erich Bryner 2.

De vorm waarin ze zijn overgeleverd varieert van een geautoriseerde gedrukte versie tot een rommelig kladje vol doorhalingen. Tot die laatste categorie horen elf brieven van de jurist Bonifacius Amerbach, hoogleraar aan de universiteit van Bazel. Van Erasmus ontving hij in deze periode eenzelfde aantal eigenhandig geschreven brieven en nog twee waarvan alleen kopieën bekend zijn. Al deze brieven dragen het karakter van privé-correspondentie. Dat laatste geldt bij uitstek voor hun brieven over Erasmius Froben, de jongste zoon van de overleden drukker Johann Froben en petekind van Erasmus. De ongeveer vijftienjarige jongen had enige tijd bij zijn peetvader in Freiburg doorgebracht en was vervolgens door zijn beduidend oudere halfbroer Hieronymus weer meegenomen naar Bazel. Blijkbaar liepen de meningen uiteen hoe de verdere opleiding van Erasmius eruit moest zien. Erasmus ziet hem het liefst in Leuven studeren, maar de familie heeft daar andere gedachten over. Helemaal zeker van zijn zaak is ook Erasmus zelf niet. Terug in Bazel laat de jongen niets van zich horen en blijkens brief 2229 had hij een briefje dat de grote geleerde aan hem had geschreven in Freiburg laten liggen.
  • Letter-Writing in the Early Swiss Reformation: Zwingli's Neglected Correspondence

    Letter-Writing in the Early Swiss Reformation: Zwingli's Neglected Correspondence

    Letter-Writing in the Early Swiss Reformation: Zwingli's Neglected Correspondence (Nigel Harris, Zürich, 7th May 2019) Is a letter a private document? Well, yes; or so I and probably all of us were brought up to believe. Certainly to this day, if a letter arrives at home addressed to my wife or to one of our children, I will on principle never open it – even if I know who it’s from and what it’s likely to contain. It just seems wrong. It seems, literally, none of my business. And so my instinct always tells me just not to do it. With some other kinds of communication, of course, the public/private divide is less clear cut. When I send an e-mail, for example, I can address a great many people at once. Some of them I probably will not know personally. And sometimes, of course, I might end up sending an e-mail by mistake to someone I am very keen actually shouldn’t read it. Mistaking the ‘reply’ button for the ‘reply to all’ button can, as we all know, get you into a lot of trouble. We’ve probably all been there. And with still more modern forms of ‘social’ media, such as Facebook and Twitter, this public/private divide can be still more problematic – so much so, indeed, that I at least shy away from them entirely. The idea of details about my private thoughts or my social and family life being shared, in principle, with absolutely anybody fills me with horror. What on earth has it got to do with anyone else? And, anyway, what gives me the right to imagine that other people are interested in what I’m doing or thinking? Isn’t that just arrogant? Well, I suppose that kind of attitude is a generational thing, and I’m showing my age in adopting it.

    The Secret of the Strength What Would the Anabaptists Tell This Generation? Peter Hoover This is the 2008 version of the text, with the original introduction, forward, cover picture, etc. The text has been revised, but is substantially the same as the original text, with the addition of pictures. Other inspiring books are available at: www.PrimitiveChristianity.org Introduction I well remember the first time I faced the stark realization that I was a Mennonite and different. My fourth-grade friend, Gregory, and I were riding home from public school on the bus. We were talking about our future, how we would always be friends and do things together when we grew up. Then he enthusiastically began to describe activities that from my upbringing I knew to be worldly. Desperate to save our lifelong friendship, I turned to Gregory and said, “You will have to leave your church and become a Mennonite when you grow up.” Thus, the inevitability of our way of life impressed itself on my eight-year-old mind. A year later I made my decision to follow Christ. Of course, Gregory never joined my church, and I do not even know his whereabouts today. The theme of separation from the world ran strong in the Cumberland Valley of Pennsylvania where I grew up. But I wrongly assumed that, except for our plainness, we believed the same things that other Christians believed. Then one evening at the Chambersburg Mennonite Church, where I was a member, a visiting speaker jolted me with a graphic picture of my martyr heritage.

    Renaissance and Reformation, 1993

    ^ Unica Oblatio Christi: Eucharistie Sacrifice and the first Zurich Disputation KEITH D. LEWIS S ummary: The First Zurich Disputation (January 29th, 1523) between Ulrich Zwingli and Johann Faber was the earliest Reformation-era public debate of the doctrine of the eucharistie sacrifice. While Zwingli was at an early and relatively fluid stage in his rejection of eucharistie sacrifice, Faber's defense employed not only traditional scholastic sources but other authoritative supports previously unused in the defense of doctrine. Never- theless, the polemical atmosphere of the exchange between the two both during and after the disputation precluded true clarity andpotential common ground on this issue. For ten long years, our opponents have written many books asserting that the mass is a sacrifice, and yet not one of them has defined what sacrifice is or is not [Philip Melanchthon, Apologia Confessionis XXIV, XII, 15 (1531)]. The fact that Swiss reformer Ulrich Zwingli rejected any notion of eucharistie sacrifice and insisted on a strictly anamnetic eucharist early-on in his emer- gence as a reformer, is well-known. Yet for all that has been written concerning Zwingli' s eucharistie theology,^ surprisingly little attention has been paid to the actual circumstances of his initial rejection of the doctrine of eucharistie sacrifice in the theological context of the First Zurich Disputation of January 29th, 1523, during which the vicar-general of the diocese of Constance Johann Faber ( 1478-1541) emerged as an impromptu and reluctant debating opponent to ZwingH, with whom Faber had been on friendly terms. This is especially surprising, when one considers that the Zurich meeting appears to have been the first public debate in the sixteenth century between a controversial theologian and a major reformation personality concerning the doctrine of eucharistie sacrifice.

The Myth of the Swiss Lutherans: Martin Bucer and the Eucharistic Controversy in Bern In 1842, Carl Hundeshagen published Die Conflicte des Zwinglianismus, Lu- thertums und Calvinismus in der Bernischen Landeskirche von 1532-1558.' The book describes the doctrinal strife within Bern and the effects of that strife on the relationship of the Bernese church with those of Geneva and Zu- rich. The conflicts centered on two issues: the Lord's Supper, and the inde- pendence of the church from state control. As the title implies, Hundeshagen identified the three positions in the controversy as Zwinglian (as represented by Zurich and one of the factions in Bern), Calvinist (Geneva and Vaud), and Lutheran (the dominant faction in Bern during the later 1530s and 1540s). It is difficult to overestimate the impact of Hundeshagen's book.
