Summary |
In their analyses of a pivotal work from the Counter Reformation in Germany, the authors provide a broader knowledge of the religious, political, and humanistic currents of the sixteenth century. Their book adds to scholarship by Bäumker, Wackernagel, Zahn, Ameln, Lipphardt, and others, and will be an essential reference work for research in the history of hymnody and religion in Germany |
