This two-volume work describes the significant activities of Martin Bucer, reformer in Strasbourg, and the profound influence he exerted on his contemporaries. The collection brings together sixty contributions in English, German and French by leading Bucer and sixteenth century scholars. They highlight Bucer's profile and style, his theology, his attitude towards social questions of his time, his work in the church, his relationships with contemporaries in the city of Strasbourg and all over Europe, his position on contemporary issues and how his peers perceived him -- in short, the many facets of thought, actions, and influence of an important but largely neglected sixteenth century reformer. They also provide new insight into the victories and defeats of Protestantism, and on Bucer's role in the progress of the Reformation in Europe. Dieses Buch stellt das Wirken und die vielfaltigen Beziehungen des Strassburger Reformators Martin Bucer dar. Sechzig Beitrage prominenter Spezialisten Bucers und des 16. Jahrhunderts sind in den zwei Banden vereint. Behandelt werden Bucers Profil und Stil, seine Theologie, seine Haltung zu gesellschaftlichen Fragen seiner Zeit, sein Wirken in der Kirche, seine Beziehungen zu Zeitgenossen in Strassburg und in ganz Europa, seine Verhaltnis zu zeitgenossischen Stromungen, die Rezeption Bucers. Die verschiedenen Beitrage erhellen auf vielfaltige Weise das Denken, das Wirken und die Austrahlung eines der grossen aber weithin vergessenen Reformators des 16. Jahrhunderts. Sie werfen auch ein neues Licht auf die Siege und Niederlagen der evangelischen Bewegung und die Rolle Bucers bei der Durchfuhrung der Reformation in Europa.

In 2017, which marks the 500th anniversary of Protestantism, we remember and celebrate the important events that started the Reformation. One of the most significant but largely forgotten affairs is the introduction and explanation of Reformed worship by Martin Bucer in Grund und Ursach (Ground and Reason) published in the city of Strasbourg in 1524. This present volume is the first English book edition with a faithful translation from German to English of Grund und Ursach, a contextual commentary, and an extensive bibliography by the late Dr. Ottomar Cypris. According to Hughes Oliphant Olds, Grund und Ursach “is one of the most significant documents in the history of Reformed worship.” Martin Bucer's Grund und Ursach influenced the liturgies of Calvin in Geneva, Knox in Scotland, Cranmer in England, and many others in the Protestant and Reformed tradition.

Martin Bucer (1491-1551) was one of the most important sixteenth century Reformers, who became leader of the Reformed Churches in Switzerland and South Germany after the death of Zwingli. To mark the 500th anniversary of his birth, an international team of specialists on Bucer highlight his contribution in thought and practice to building the community of the Church in England and Europe. The issues addressed also raise matters of contemporary significance, such as Church-state relations, Protestant-Catholic unity, and tensions between a church of true believers and a "people's" church.

Das Denken und Handeln des Strassburger Reformators Martin Bucer (1491-1551) ist überaus vielfältig und komplex. Die vorliegende Studie bietet erstmalig eine kohärente Gesamtdarstellung dieser Gedankenwelt und ihrer praktischen Umsetzung. Der Terminus regnum Christi, ein Schlüsselbegriff der bucerschen Theologie, steht im Zentrum der Arbeit, wobei insbesondere das Verhältnis zwischen Reich Christi und Obrigkeit analysiert wird. Anhand der Themenkomplexe Bilder, Bildung, Messe, Dissidenten, Zucht und Interim werden die jeweiligen Positionen Bucers und des Strassburger Rats, ihre Zusammenarbeit wie auch ihre Kontroversen aufgezeigt. Im Rahmen der Themenstellung beschäftigt sich die Studie auch mit Bucers Wirken ausserhalb von Strassburg. Analysiert werden das reformatorische Engagement in den freien Reichsstädten Ulm und Augsburg sowie im Erzbistum Köln, die Beratertätigkeit zugunsten des Landgrafen Philipp von Hessen (u. a. in der Frage nach der Tolerierung der Juden) sowie die Bemühungen um die sichtbare Einheit des regnum Christi in der Zeit der Religionsgespräche.
