Diepold Peringer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Diepold Peringer , sometimes also spelled Diebold Beringer , actually Diepold Schuster (* in Aichenbrunnen near Ulm ) was a German priest or friar who left his monastery. Disguised as a farmer ("Bauer von Wöhrd", Pawren zů Werdt ), he worked as a Reformation preacher.

Live and act

Little is known of Peringer's life. He was born in the Ulm region and was a. a. around 1523 in Wöhrd , a former suburb of Nuremberg , active as a preacher. Georg Spalatin attended his sermon on January 7, 1524 and was impressed. A large number of his sermons, published as (illegal) pamphlets , were printed and reached a large number of literate people. In his sermons he stood firmly against the papacy and the adoration of the saints . His self-portrayals on various woodcuts show him with clumsy shoes, hat and flail in hand, while his right hand is raised and gesticulates in the style of a preacher. Nevertheless, he was publicly proclaimed as a cleric in 1524.

He was probably involved in the conflicts in the German Peasants' War (1524-1526) and found his death in the conflict.
