Briefe von Januar bis April 1548
Anhang: Neuer Brief aus dem Jahr 1547
by Heinrich Bullinger and edited by David Mache and Paul Achim Neuendorf
The situation immediately before the announcement of the Augsburg Interim is tense: Emperor Charles V consolidates his power during the tumultuous Imperial Diet in Augsburg. The pressure on the imperial city of Constance and the sanctions increase steadily. King Henry II of France sought an alliance with the Confederates, but at the same time the persecution of the Protestants in France reached new heights and the German King Ferdinand I attempted to seize the Duchy of Wurttemberg. Bullinger’s letters from this period provide a detailed insight into the events. They also provide new information on writings and prints, the school system, news from England and France and from the Imperial Diet in Augsburg. Bullinger’s main correspondents are Ambrosius Blarer, Oswald Myconius and Joachim Vadian. In addition to 96 surviving letters from the period January to April 1548, the volume contains a letter from 1547, which has been dated for the first time.
Die Lage unmittelbar vor der Bekanntgabe des Augsburger Interims ist angespannt: Kaiser Karl V. festigt wahrend des geharnischten Reichstags in Augsburg seine Macht. Der Druck auf die Reichsstadt Konstanz und die Sanktionen nehmen stetig zu. Konig Heinrich II. von Frankreich strebt ein Bundnis mit den Eidgenossen an, lasst aber gleichzeitig die Verfolgungen der Evangelischen in Frankreich einen neuen Hohepunkt erreichen und der deutsche Konig Ferdinand I. versucht, das Herzogtum Wurttemberg an sich zu reissen. Die Briefe Bullingers aus dieser Zeit geben einen detaillierten Einblick in die Geschehnisse. Sie liefern zudem neue Informationen zu Schriften und Drucken, zum Schulwesen, Nachrichten aus England und Frankreich sowie vom Reichstag in Augsburg. Bullingers Hauptkorrespondenten sind Ambrosius Blarer, Oswald Myconius und Joachim Vadian. Neben 96 uberlieferten Briefen aus dem Zeitraum Januar bis April 1548 enthalt der Band ein Schreiben aus dem Jahr 1547, das erstmals datiert werden konnte.
