Frymire, John M.
The primacy of the postils : Catholics, Protestants, and the dissemination of ideas in early modern Germany / by John M. Frymire. - Leiden ; Boston : Brill, 2010. - 1 online resource (xii, 641 pages) : illustrations - Studies in medieval and Reformation traditions, v. 147 1573-4188 ; . - Studies in medieval and Reformation traditions ; v. 147. .
Includes bibliographical references (pages 559-631) and index.
Catholic preaching and the German Reformation? : postils and their production, 1520-1535 -- Re-invention, innovation, and reaction : Lutheran and Catholic postils, 1535-1555 -- Matches made in heaven : Lutheran postillators in the service of their princes, 1555-1620 -- Excursus : Calvinist postils? : the pragmatism of German Reformed postillators -- Catholic Postillenfresser : postils, Catholic reform, and the Counter-Reformation -- Correcting Catholicism : censorship, confessional consolidation, and the decline of homegrown postillators.
Scholarship on the German Reformation has long equated preaching with Protestantism, just as many scholars have employed sermons but usually in supplemental and unsystematic ways. Based on an analysis of over 400 standard sermon collections (postils) produced by Catholics, Lutherans, and Calvinists (1520-1620), this study offers the first comprehensive, systematic presentation of these works from a cross-confessional perspective. It lays to rest the notion that preaching was somehow distinctively Protestant while tracing the creation, production, use, and censorship of postils.
