520 $a This study of German vernacular songs transmitted in sixteenth-century pamphlets and broadsides examines the role such songs played in the spread of polemic and propaganda during the Protestant Reformation. Chapter I provides an introduction to the sources of these songs and an overview of the role such music has played in previous accounts of the Reformation.
520 $a The second chapter's examination of Luther's views on the power of music leads in chapter 3 to an investigation of the reformer's 1523 ballad, "Ein neues Lied wir heben an." This work, which appeared in the context of a polemical exchange over the canonization of Benno of Meissen, marked Luther's first use of song as propaganda and set an example for later Protestants intent on using music in the battle for souls.
520 $a Most of the songs considered in this study made use of preexistent melodies. Chapter 4 shows why such contrafacta provided a particularly effective vehicle for the spread of information to the vast non-reading German population. Owing to the familiarity of their melodies, such songs made possible a level of distribution greater than that attainable by any printed medium alone. Particularly widespread were contrafacta of Catholic devotional music, which Protestants used to mock traditional belief and disrupt religious services.
520 $a Focusing on a group of songs written in response to the 1548 Augsburg Interim, Chapter 5 demonstrates how popular song could become a form of popular resistance and dissent. Meant to reunite Catholics and Protestants, the Interim instead resulted in their further separation, as strict Lutherans attacked its provisions as "too Catholic." Evangelical theologians composed numerous songs that eroded support for the Interim and helped bring about its end.
520 $a Protestants facing such trials as the Interim, Luther's 1521 condemnation, or his death in 1546 came to interpret these events as signs of the end of time. In chapter 6, 1 discuss the apocalypse and Antichrist in Reformation music. Nearly a quarter of polemical songs from 1517 to 1555 used millenarian imagery to describe current events, providing consolation to Christians and reassurance that their struggles had meaning and would ultimately be rewarded.
