Social Discipline, the Ban, and Political Resistance Among Swiss Anabaptists, 1550-1700
The Limits of Confessionalization: Social Discipline, the Ban, and Political Resistance Among Swiss Anabaptists, 1550-1700 JOHN D. ROTH* Abstract: Although historians have frequently emphasized the political, social, and religious radicalism of the Anabaptist movement, this essay suggests that in the context of seventeenth-century efforts to impose new forms of central state control over villages in the Swiss Cantons of Zurich and Bern, Anabaptism attracted new members in the countryside precisely because it preserved an older, medieval ideal of a Christian community, capable of self-regulation and self-discipline. At a time when the central authorities were seeking to take control of village Chorgerichten (morals courts) as institutions of social discipline, Anabaptists doctrines and practices gained support as a means of preserving the traditional ideal of a “moral community” made up of members whose disciplined lives were pleasing to both God and their neighbors. On the afternoon of September 29, 1614, Hans Landis—a 70-year-old, self-educated farmer from the Swiss hamlet of Horgen—was led in chains to the main moat (Hauptgrube) at the outskirts of Zurich. There, only hours after the city’s Great Council had judged him guilty of “stubborn and seditious rebellion,” he spoke some final words to a hastily assembled crowd, granted the executioner’s request for forgiveness, and knelt before the executioner’s sword.1 By the time of his death, Zurich authorities were well acquainted with the gray-bearded Landis. Some twenty-five years earlier, in 1589, he, along with fourteen other peasants, had been imprisoned in the *John D.

Getting to Montreux Via Zurich Airport by Train
GETTING TO MONTREUX VIA ZURICH AIRPORT BY TRAIN Members flying to Zurich who will not attend the Summit, but wish to go directly to Montreux, can travel there by train. A train to Montreux leaves from Zurich Airport once every hour. The train ride is very scenic and lasts about three hours. There is a train station in the airport. Getting to the station is easy by following these directions: When you clear passport control/customs, get your bags and walk through the customs lanes. (Where you get your bags, there are free baggage trolleys available.) You will enter the "public" area of the arrivals terminal. You'll see overhead signs for the "Bahn" and pictograms of trains. Follow the signs and pictograms to exit the terminal. ( If you need francs, stop at one of the ATMs before you leave the arrivals terminal.) After exiting the arrivals terminal, walk straight ahead and cross over the passenger pick-up lanes. You will enter another building with a shopping center on ground level, and the train station downstairs/lower level. When you enter this second building, you will be in the shopping center. The train station is on the lower level. You will see pictograph signs to the station downstairs - you can take the escalators or the elevators. Just go down the escalator or elevator to the lower level, and you will see large boards showing trains, and the ticket windows. You can't miss it. If you purchase a pass for multiple day travel instead of a one-way ticket to Montreux, you will need to have your pass validated at the ticket window.
