Against the Murderous, Thieving Hordes of Peasants

Against the Murderous, Thieving Hordes of Peasants is a literature work written by Martin Luther about the Peasant's Revolt. Although Martin Luther and his doctrine was largely the cause for the Peasant's Revolt, Luther sided with the Princes and Nobles, condemning the violence of the peasants. In an effort to try and stop the riots, Luther wrote the "Admonition to Peace", written for several reasons. The initial reason for writing the "Admonition to Peace" was written to stop the peasants from revolting, but it was also written to remove any idea that Scripture was the cause for the revolts. However, in surveying the damage later, Luther realized that the "Admonition of peace" had had little to no effect, so he wrote "Against the Murderous, Thieving Hordes of Peasants" citing many verses from Scripture to admonish the peasants and their actions in an effort to subdue the anger of the populace.

Anne Boleyn

Anne Boleyn was a lady of the court under King Henry VII's reign who later married him after he divorced his wife, Catherine of Aragon. She was King Henry's second wife, but failed to give him a son twice. She was later tried for adulterous incest by her husband and executed.

Anticlericalism

Anticlericalism, in Roman Catholicism, opposition to the clergy for its real or alleged influence in political and social affairs, for its doctrinairism, for its privileges or property, or for any other reason.

Anti clericalists believed that people should read the Bible for themselves and that the Pope and the Catholic Church held no saving power because only God could save you.

Catherine of Aragon

Catherine of Aragon was the daughter of King Ferdinand of Aragon and Queen Isabella of Castile. She was Queen of England from 1509 to 1533.

Charles V

Charles V was the ruler of three nations: the Spanish Empire, the Holy Roman Empire, and the Hapsburg Netherlands. He was a strongly opposed to Protestantism and the Reformation, being a devout Catholic.

When the Reformation started getting larger in the Holy Roman Empire, Charles V called an Imperial Diet to try and halt the spread of religious division.

John Calvin

John Calvin was a French theologian and important person in the reformation. He believed that people were "predestined" or chosen by God to be saved. At the time, this view was incredibly controversial and viewed as fatalist or pessimistic. However, Calvin soon gained a large number of followers in Geneva. Calvin transformed Geneva into a community based on his religious principles with the most powerful group of people being the Consistory, a group of pastors and theologians disciplining deviations from scripture. Around a hundred people were exiled from Geneva or executed by the Consistory.

Her support of Lady Jane Grey's usurpation of the crown and Wyatt's Rebellion led to the common term from the people "Bloody Mary". Mary restored Roman Catholicism after her half-brother, King Henry VII's son's short reign of Protestantism. After her death in 1558, Protestantism was reinstated by her half-sister Elizabeth I.

Mary Queen of Scots

How did Protestant ideas and institutions spread beyond German-speaking lands?

Protestant ideas and institutions spread beyond German-speaking lands through the printing press, through letters, and through several Diets. The printing press helped to spread Protestant ideas by printing out books, papers, and other works of literature written in the common vernacular distributing them all around Europe. Letters worked to spread Protestant ideas by certain Reformational leaders writing to other soon to be Reformational leaders causing them to influence their communities and spread Protestant ideas. Diets unintentionally caused the spread of Protestant ideas by calling public court meetings against Protestant beliefs, but letting everyone hear the Protestant argument.

What were the central ideas of the reformers? Why were they appealing to different social groups?

The central ideas of the reformers were religious freedom for everyone meaning everyone could read and interpret the Bible as they saw fit and everyone could create their own churches; and free religion for everyone, meaning they would not be required to spend any money just to go to Church. This was appealing to different social groups because it meant that not everyone had to conform to something they didn't want to do. For example, poor people didn't have to spend money to go to church, and people who didn't agree with the the Catholic Church didn't have to go at all.

How did the political situation in Germany shape the course of the Reformation?

The political situation in Germany shaped the course of the Reformation in that most nobles were for the Reformation, and what little power opposed the Reformation was not enough to do anything about it.

This allowed the discontent of the people to stew for a long time until their opposition toward the Catholic Church bubbled over into revolt.

They took control of ten, and the other seven formed the Union of Utrecht. Another result of the spread of Protestant ideas was the anti-Reformation and the forming of the Jesuits. The Jesuits was a new order of Catholicism in Europe, blending Catholicism with Humanism. The Jesuits wanted to improve the spiritual condition of the populace.
