Summary "Die Wiedertäufer von Münster: Drama in 5 Akten" by Bernhard Kellermann is a dramatic work written in the early 20th century. This play delves into the historical events surrounding the radical Anabaptist movement in Münster during the Reformation. The story focuses on key characters such as Johann von Leyden, who is referred to as the “King of the New Christendom,” and his followers as they navigate battles, religious fervor, and the conflicts arising from their beliefs. The opening of the drama sets the scene in Münster, where the tension from an ongoing siege is palpable. As the curtain rises, chaotic sounds of war reach the audience, revealing the fervor of the characters who are preparing for a celebration after a recent victory. The characters, including the enthusiastic Knipperdolling and the fierce Divara, interact amidst the backdrop of warfare, highlighting their excitement over the defeat of their enemies. The arrival of wounded soldiers and the discussions about strategy and Prophetic visions underscore the intense atmosphere of religious zeal and conflict, illustrating the dual nature of their struggle – both against external forces and the internal turmoil of their faith.
