The Twelve Articles of the Peasants

Interesting bit of history

The Twelve Articles of the Peasants -- "The fundamental and correct chief articles of all the peasants and of those subject to ecclesiastical lords, relating to these matters in which they feel themselves aggrieved."
A Reply to the Twelve Articles of the Peasants in Swabia -- "...almost all of the articles are framed in their own interest and for their own good, though not for their best good."
