Knipperdollinck, a See also:man of See also:fine presence and glib See also:tongue, noted from his youth for eccentricity, had the See also:ear of the Munster populace when in 1527 he helped to break the See also:prison of Tonics Kruse, in the See also:teeth of the See also:bishop and the civic authorities. For this he made his See also:peace with the latter; but, venturing on another business journey, he was arrested, imprisoned for a See also:year, and released on See also:payment of a high fine—in regard of which treatment he began an See also:action before the Imperial Chamber. Though his aims were See also:political rather than religious, he attached himself to the reforming See also:movement of Bernhardt Rothmann, once (1529) See also:chaplain of St Mauritz, outside Munster, now (1532) pastor of the See also:city See also:- CHURCH

Knipperdollinck was a See also:leader of the latter in the surprise (See also:December 26, 1532) which made prisoners of the negotiating nobles at Telgte, in the territory of Munster.

From the 1st of See also:January 1534 Roll preached Anabaptist doctrines in a city See also:pulpit; a few days later, two Dutch emissaries of See also:Jan Matthysz, or Matthyssen, the See also:master-See also:baker and Anabaptist See also:prophet of See also:Haarlem, came on a See also:mission to Munster. They were followed (January 13) by Jan Beukelsz (or Bockelszoon, or Buchholdt), better known as See also:John of See also:Leiden. It was his second visit to Munster; he came now as an apostle of Matthysz. He was twenty-five, with a winning See also:personality, See also:great gifts as an organizer, and plenty of ambition. Knipperdollinck, whose daughter See also:Clara was ultimately enrolled among the wives of John of Leiden, came under his See also:influence. Matthysz himself came to Munster (1J34) and lived in Knipperdollinck's See also:house, which became the centre of the new movement to substitute Munster for See also:Strassburg (Melchior See also:Hofmann's choice) as the New See also:Jerusalem. On the See also:death of 1~latthysz, in a foolish See also:raid (April 5, 1534), John became supreme. Knipperdollinck, with one See also:attempt at revolt, when he claimed the kingship for himself, was his subservient henchman, wheedling the Munster See also:democracy into subjection to the fantastic See also:rule of the " See also:- KING

He See also:fell in with the See also:polygamy innovation, the protest of his wife being visited with a See also:penance. In the military See also:measures for resisting the See also:siege of Munster he took no leading See also:part. On the fall of the city (See also:June 25, 1J35) he hid in a dwelling in the city See also:wall, but was betrayed by his landlady. After six months' incarceration, his trial, along with his comrades, took See also:place on the 19th of January, and his See also:execution, with fearful tortures, on the 22nd of January 1536. Knipperdollinck attempted to strangle himself, but was forced to endure the worst. His See also:body, like those of the others, was hung in a cage on the See also:tower of St Lamberti, where the cages are still to be seen.
