Riepilogo: | The printing of the first edition of William Tyndale’s English New Testament began surreptitiously in Cologne, but was terminated through the efforts of the anti-Lutheran activist priest Johann Cochlaeus and the Cologne patrician Hermann Rinck. Cochlaeus wrote three accounts of the affair, brief ones in 1533 and 1538, and a detailed one in 1549. In the first two accounts he dated it 1525, and in the last account he dated it 1526. Scholars unanimously accepted his final dating until 1845, when the Scottish biblical historian Christopher Anderson argued for Cochlaeus’ earlier date. Since then there has been a near-unanimous scholarly consensus that 1525 was indeed the year of the affair. I seek to show that in fact the affair occurred entirely in 1526, beginning no earlier than January 23 and concluding no later than the first days of March. |
