Essential Carlstadt: Fifteen Tracts by Andreas Bodenstein (Carlstadt) from Karlstadt

Although he was not an Anabaptist, the life and thought of Radical Reformer Andreas Bodenstein (Carlstadt), 1486-1541, had a strong influence on the Anabaptist movement. In 1534 he joined the faculty at the University of Basel. A professor of biblical studies at Wittenberg, Carlstadt became involved in radical changes which brought him into conflict with Luther. The fifteen tracts translated and edited here by E. J. Furcha represent the first major collection of Carlstadt's writings in one volume. They give excellent insight into his sound Christian faith and exemplary zeal as a reformer of the church "from below."
