Here: Study in Humanism and Radical Reformation in Sixteenth Century Silesia with two goals: first, to seek to investigate the main features of the thought and contribution of Valentin Crautwald, sixteenth century spiritualist theologian and colleague of Caspar Schwenckfeld; secondly, the study consideres to what extent this representative of radical reform can be identified with two other influential traditions of this time - late medieval Augustianism and Erasmian Humanism. A subsidary goal is to present Crautwald as an early representative of the ecumenical ideal, highlighting his approach to restoring peace und unity to the devided church of his day.
