| Description | The Anabaptists represented a specific social element of the early modern Moravian society. Their religious and social nonconformity pushed them to the very edge of society in consequence of which they were feared and persecuted. But in early modern Moravia, they were allowed to form a unique community and despite all the fears they encountered elementary understanding and often even acceptance. Integration and disintegration processes during the one hundred years of the Anabaptist existence in Moravia were impacted by various parties: nobility, the ruler, representatives of the Catholic church, dominion agents and personnel, or other subjects. Yet it was a two-way procedure – while the Moravian society partially integrated the Anabaptists into its structures, the Anabaptists themselves were influenced by the outer world in consequence of intensified interactions and contacts as well. |
