In the sixteenth century, the Protestant Reformation launched an attack on privilege and the Catholic Church, but it rapidly became an established, bourgeois authority itself. Rural laborers and the urban poor, who were still being promised equality in heaven, began to question why they shouldn't have equality here and now on earth. There ensued a furious struggle between the powerful-the comfortable Protestants-and the others, the wretched. They were led by a number of theologians, one of whom has left his mark on history through his determination and sheer energy. His name was Thomas MuÌntzer, and he set Germany on fire. The War of the Poor recounts his story-that of an insurrection through the Word. In his characteristically bold, cinematic style, EÌric Vuillard draws insights from this revolt from nearly five hundred years ago, which remains shockingly relevant to the dire inequalities we face today"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a MuÌnzer, Thomas, $d approximately 1490-1525. 650 0 $a Peasants' War, 1524-1525. 650 0 $a Reformation $z Germany $v Biography. 700 1 $a Polizzotti, Mark, $e translator. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Vuillard, EÌric. $t War of the poor $d New York : Other Press, [2020] $z 9781635420098 $w (DLC) 2020029869 941 $a 1 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20201202011959.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=34263A54346E11EB831ACDE824ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
