The lengthened shadow of one man -- The thrall of Utopian illusions -- The revitalization of Bruderhof piety -- Surrendered to Jesus: varieties of religious melancholy -- Religious melancholy among other Anabaptist sects
This is a case study of one pietist religious group, the Bruderhof. A Christian brotherhood founded on Anabaptist and evangelical pietist doctrine, they practice community of goods, seeking to emulate the vision of the Apostolic church and fulfil the ethic of brotherhood taught in the Sermon on the Mount. Rubin offers compelling accounts of the lives of Bruderhof apostates who foundered over issues of faith, and relates these crises to the central tenets of Bruderhof theology, their; spirituality, and community life
