The Life and Times of Ulric Zwingli (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. Swiss Reformation, Zurich Church Reform, and the Civic Upheavals of Sixteenth-Century SwitzerlandBy Johann Jakob Hottinger
Length15h 34m
About this audiobook
The Life and Times of Ulric Zwingli presents the Zurich reformer not merely as a theologian, but as a figure inseparable from the civic, military, and ecclesiastical upheavals of early sixteenth-century Switzerland. Hottinger's narrative combines biographical reconstruction with confessional history, moving from Zwingli's humanist formation and pastoral ministry to his break with late medieval Catholic practice, his disputations, reforms, and death at Kappel. Its style is learned, documentary, and morally serious, characteristic of nineteenth-century Protestant historical writing. Johann Jakob Hottinger, a Swiss scholar formed within the intellectual traditions of Reformed Zurich, wrote from a milieu deeply conscious of Zwingli's religious and national significance. His interest in the reformer reflects both historical scholarship and inherited ecclesiastical memory: Zwingli was, for Zurich, a founder of spiritual independence and civic renewal. Hottinger's work therefore bears the marks of archival diligence, theological sympathy, and patriotic concern. This book is recommended to readers seeking more than a simple life of Zwingli. It will especially reward students of the Reformation, Swiss history, and Protestant political thought, offering a richly contextual account of how doctrine, public life, and national identity converged in one reforming career.
