Another book on Oecolampadius to announce

Ernst Staehelin, Breakthrough to the Reformation: Oecolampadius' Journey in Stages from Augsburg to Basel (1518—1522)

This is Part II of Staehelin's definitive biography; the shortest of the five parts, but arguably the most pivotal and decisive phase in the theological formation of this first generation Reformer. This very reasonably priced hardcover makes a good companion piece to my translation of Oecolampadius, Sown on Rock: The Sermon on the Vernacular and the Correspondence with Hedio (B&N Press).
