Caspar Schwenckfeld: Eight Writings on Christian Beliefs, Edited by H.H. Drake Williams III
"Caspar Schwenckfeld was a devout early follower of Luther and, later, one of the key Spiritualist leaders of the Reformation in Germany. This translated and edited collection of his confessional writings seeks to correct the presumption that since he was a Spiritualist par excellence, he was therefore anti-confessional. The selected texts also demonstrate that he believed Scripture to be the basis of confessions and the standard against which all confessional statements must be judged. That so few of his writings are available in English, despite the enormity of his corpus and his importance for both the Lutheran and radical Reformation movements, makes this volume of general importance for English language Reformation scholarship." - Jonathan Seiling in the Conrad Grebel Review
