Notes on Style and Language
The dialect of most German quotations is Frhneuhochdeutsch (Early New High German).
Manuscript quotations are from original sources where these were available. Quotations from sixteenth-century printed sources are taken from the original publication, where possible.
Original spelling (as found in the source used) has been retained throughout, including the letters u, v, i, j. The only exceptions are instances of the letter v with either an umlaut or a superscript u; these have been simplified as v.
Shorthand abbreviations, both in manuscript and printed works, have been expanded (e.g. Psalm has become Psalme[n]; od has become od[er]).
Song titles retain their sixteenth-century spellings. Generally, the form in which a song title most commonly appears has been used. Where songs are discussed in the context of a particular publication, however, they will be spelt as found in that publication. This means that some song titles may be spelt in different ways at different points within this book. Titles of songs and poems are between inverted commas (e.g. Gott sey gelobet), while publication titles are in italics (e.g. Tetsch Kirchenampt).
Line-breaks in book titles are usually only used in the bibliography in instances of clarification, e.g. to distinguish between two editions of the same book published in the same year.
Place names and personal names have been standardised, according to generally accepted modern-day spellings in English scholarship.
Biblical quotations (except when incorporated into a sixteenth-century text or otherwise specified) are from the New International Version (NIV), taken from http://www.biblegateway.com.
All manuscript classmarks refer to the collection of the Strasbourg Archives de la Ville et de la Communaut urbaine, unless otherwise stated. See p. 378 for a list of the collections consulted.
Dating of Sources
In Germany until 1544, although 1 January was considered the beginning of the historical year, the numbering of the new year in most places did not change until 25 March, the beginning of the civil year. also treat 1 January as the beginning of the historical year. 1 January has therefore been taken as the beginning of the new calendar year for the purposes of this book.
Every region of Europe had its own custom. Neighbouring Lorraine, for example, began the year on both 25 December and 25 March. See J. J. Bond, Handy-Book of Rules and Tables for Verifying Dates with the Christian Era (London: Bell & Sons, 1875), pp. 94, 97.
