HIST-308 Lecture Notes - Lecture 73: Free Imperial City, Augsburg Interim, Thomas Cranmer
Document Summary
Bucer"s dreams of christian concord at times even extended to the papal catholics. He worked with the hre, chalres v, who also wanted to see an end to intra-religious disputes within his territories: colloquy of regendsburg. In 1541, many of bucer"s ideas about how to unify reformers and catholics were aired at the imperial colloquy of regensburg. Bucer was embarrassed at how he came off as obscure and equivocating: ausburg interim. In 1548, charles v pushed through his own imperial compromise. When bucer opposed this compromise, he was chased out of strasbourg. He went to live in exile in reforming england: augsburg and melanchthon. Unlike bucer, he ultimately agreed to the augsburg interim. Although he held firm on justification by faith. He was willing to make concessions on other controversial issues like the number of 7 sacaments: bucer in england. In england, he supported the ongoing reform efforts of thomas cranmer.
