Elaine Fulton

Catholic Belief and Survival in Late Sixteenth-Century Vienna (eBook, ePUB)

The Case of Georg Eder (1523-87)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Dr Georg Eder was an extraordinary figure who rose from humble origins to hold a number of high positions at Vienna University and the city's Habsburg court between 1552 and 1584. Pivoting around a dramatic incident in 1573, when Eder's ferocious anti-Lutheran polemic, the Evangelical Inquisition, fell under sharp Imperial condemnation, this book investigates key aspects of his career and adds significantly to the wider canon of Reformation history by re-examining the nature and extent of Catholicism at the Viennese court in the latter half of the sixteenth century.
