This handbook provides a comprehensive survey of current scholarship on Anabaptist and Spiritualist history and theology from 1521 to 1700. Since the last half of the twentieth century, the historiography of the Radical Reformation has been the focus of vigorous and creative debate. The volume–broadly cast in terms of geographic scope and topical coverage–carefully untangles the fluid boundaries of Spiritualism and Anabaptism in Early Modern European history. In addition to a narrative summary, each chapter also provides a bibliography of sources and current scholarship, and concludes with suggestions for future research. This handbook will serve a generation of students as the standard reference work on Anabaptism and Spiritualism.Contributors include: Geoffrey Dipple, Michael Driedger, Hans-Jürgen Goertz, Brad Gregory, Sigrun Haude, Ralf Klötzer, John D. Rempel, John D. Roth, Martin Rothkegel, C. Arnold Snyder, James Stayer, Piet Visser, and R. Emmet McLaughlin.Originally published in hardcover.

"[...] this volume brings Anabaptist research a significant step forward, never failing to provide even the well-read student of Anabaptism with fresh insights, often at the most unexpected of places". - Stephen E. Buckwalter, Bucer-Forschungsstelle, Heidelberg, in: The Mennonite Quarterly Review, Vol. 83, No. 3 (July 2009)."Der Band, der sich methodisch-theoretisch im Spektrum der aktuellen Diskussionen über die Anfänge der Täufer sowie kulturwissenschaftlicher Ansätze bewegt, stellt ein willkommenes und den Stand der Täuferforschung in breiter Form zusammenfassendes Handbuch dar. [...] Karten ergänzen den Band, auch der Index, der neben Namen und Orten Sachbegriffe und Druckwerke aufgenommen hat, ist lobend hervorzuheben. Das große Verdienst des Bandes ist seine thematisch und chronologisch breite Präsentation der täuferischen Bewegungen, die auch die frühen Anfänge unter Thomas Müntzer, Andreas Karlstadt und die Bauernaufstände sowie die spiritualistischen Traditionen mit einbezieht." - Astrid von Schlachta, Universität Innsbruck, in: Innsbrucker Historische Studien, Vol. 26 (2010), pp. 245-248
