| Summary: | "T&T Clark Handbook of Anabaptism comprises four sections: 1) Origins, 2) Doctrine, 3) Influences on Anabaptism, and 4) Contemporary Anabaptism and Relationship to Others. The first section has a general chronological flow, with essays examining the development of the movement and its relevance in the world. The second section details various chapters on doctrines often associated with Anabaptism, distinguishing between various Anabaptist theologians and regions on each of these doctrines, demonstrating the diversity of thought amongst Anabaptists on ecclesiology, baptism, peace, and church discipline. The third section outlines some major theologians, who directly or typologically influenced various Anabaptists, such as Erasmus, Zwingli, Luther, Karlstadt and Müntzer. The final section develops the life and ministry of the denominational traditions which come directly from the Anabaptist movement (Mennonites, Amish, Hutterites, and Brethren), perhaps some that come indirectly (e.g., Baptists), and the appropriation of Anabaptist traditions from new communities of evangelicals. The volume concludes with a chapter on how contemporary Anabaptists interact with the wider Church in all its variety. By utilizing the contributions of a variety of scholars - theologians, historians, and biblical scholars, this book serves to make this complex and sometimes disparate movement more easily accessible by outlining its early history, its basic shared theological convictions, and its ongoing challenges to and influence on contemporary Christianity. While some of the authorities within the volume will disagree even with one another regarding Anabaptist origins, emphases on doctrine, and influence in the contemporary world, such differences will represent the diversity that constitutes historic Anabaptism well"-- |
