They foresee the savage chastisement of the clergy, the murder of clerics, and the forceful restructuring of the Church. But they also infuse the apocalyptic narrative with explicitly German elements. German speakers are frequently cast as the agents of these stirring events, in which the clergy suffer tribulations and the Church hierarchy is torn down. Thus the central argument of this book is that popular German prophecies encouraged a vision of members of the Empire as the ordained reformers of Christendom at the end of time. 000757211 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on March 18, 2016). 000757211 650_0 $$aEschatology$$xHistory of doctrines$$yMiddle Ages, 600-1500. 000757211 650_0 $$aNationalism$$zGermany$$xHistory. 000757211 650_0 $$aGroup identity$$zGermany$$xHistory. 000757211 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKneupper, Frances Courtney.$$tEmpire at the end of time.$$dNew York : Oxford University Press, 2016$$z9780190279363$$w(DLC) 2015021919 000757211 85280 $$bebk$$hOxford Scholarship Online 000757211 85640 $$3Oxford scholarship online$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190279363.001.0001$$zOnline Access 000757211 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:757211$$pGLOBAL_SET 000757211 980__ $$aEBOOK 000757211 980__ $$aBIB 000757211 982__ $$aEbook 000757211 983__ $$aOnline
