The author, Rudolf Wirth, was a Swiss Reformed theologian and controversialist. As a child Hospinian watched his father imprisoned and tortured by the Church, and his uncle martyred, for heresy. In this work, Wirth attacked Catholic ceremonies as being out of harmony with the practices of the early Christian church. He writes of errors in Catholic baptism, the Eucharist, church festivals, fasting, religious orders, the rule of the papacy, and funerals. His biographer J. Heidegger writes: "Our Hospinian believed that the false dye of antiquity could be shaken off if the first origins of their errors, the incunabula themselves, as if tiny fibers placed beneath the sun and so shining through more clearly, could be distinguished from all the rest.".
