In this engaging and accessible biography, follow Zwingli’s journey from his upbringing in the Swiss Alps to his rise as a powerful preacher and reformer in Zurich. Influenced by Renaissance humanism and his experiences as a military chaplain, Zwingli emerged as a fierce critic of corruption in both church and state.
Explore his decisive role in the Reformation, from his bold rejection of indulgences to the dramatic Zurich Disputations, where he called for sweeping religious reform. This book traces his unwavering commitment to sola scriptura (Scripture alone) and examines his theological clashes with Martin Luther at the Marburg Colloquy, a turning point in Protestant unity.
As political tensions escalated, Zwingli took both the pulpit and the battlefield, ultimately meeting his end at the Battle of Kappel. Yet his influence endured. Through the leadership of Heinrich Bullinger, Zwingli’s theological vision continued to shape Reformed traditions across Europe and beyond.
Clear, well-researched, and compelling, Ulrich Zwingli is essential reading for anyone interested in Reformation history, church history, theology, and European history.
Uncover the story of a reformer whose impact still echoes in the modern world.
