Abstract
Like most of the Reformers, John Calvin (1509--64) loosely applied the terms "Anabaptist," "fanatic," and similar epithets to a number of diverse groups within what is commonly known as the radical, or nonmagisterial, Reformation. In the early years of Calvin's career, for example, an "Anabaptist" (or "Catabaptist") could have been one of the so-called psychopannychists - French Protestants who allegedly denied the traditional doctrine of the state of the soul after death.
