Why Is John of Falkenberg Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, John of Falkenberg or Johannes Falkenberg was a German Dominican theologian and writer. His prominence in medieval history is due partly to the share he took in the Western Schism, but chiefly to his involving himself in the long-standing disputes between the Teutonic Knights of Prussia on one side and the allied Kingdom of Poland and Grand Duchy of Lithuania on the other. He is known as one of the first thinkers to advocate genocide of another nation.
