The Austrian Protestants of the eighteenth century are not without their memorials; the noble series of Jahrbücher produced by the Society for the History of Austrian Protestantism and the bicentennial celebrations of Joseph II's Toleration Patent in 1981 have seen to that. But whereas the Hungarian Protestants are perceived as central to the history of their kingdom, the great Protestant emigration from Salzburg in 1731–2 receives a mention in general histories produced outside England, the Moravian propaganda machine has ensured that the religious fate of Bohemia and Moravia figures in the general myth of Protestant revival, and even the development of Silesian Protestantism has attracted new attention, the Austrian Protestants seem never to be centre stage, though their irritating presence in the wings is admitted to goad the Habsburgs in their search for new methods of government.

9 Bumet’s view was that the Salzburger Protestants were descended from the Waldensians, Burnet, G., Some letters concerning an account of what seemed most remarkable in Switzerland, Italy &c, London 1687Google Scholar (trans. Beschreibung seiner Reise durch die Schweiz, Italien und einiger Orter Deutschlands und Frankreichs). This was widely discussed - e.g. by Schelhom, J. G., Historische Nachricht von Ursprunge, Fortgang und Schicksale der evangelischen Religion in den Salzburgischen Landen, Leipzig 1732, 7–10Google Scholar. -and was rejected both by Joseph Schaitberger, the exiled Hallein miner and evangelist, Wahrhaftiger Bericht von der Salzburgischen Reformation welche im Jahr…1686 vorgegangen ist (repr. in Hillinger, op. cit. 130), and by G. G. G. Göcking, Vollkommene Emigrations…Geschichte... Frankfurt-Leipzig 1734–7, i. 43–4. The parallel between the fate of the Waldenses, who suffered renewed persecution in the 1720s and (despite British and Prussian diplomatic support, and much Swiss assistance) emigrated on a modest scale, was too close to escape notice, Die seuffende Salzburger oder besondere Unterredung…zwischen einem…Waldenstr, Magdeburg 1732Google Scholar; Die getrostete Salzburger, oder Gesprdch… zwischen einem Salzburger und einem… Waldenser, Magdeburg 1733; Die zweyte Unterrcdung…zwischen einem…Salzburger und einem… Waldenser, Magdeburg 1732. Protestant scholars were too preoccupied with assessing the place of the Waldensians in the pedigree of the Reformation to explore their contemporary history, Rieger, Salz-Bund Gottes, 738–9; idem, Böhmische Brüder, i. 4–6; Unschuldige Nachrichten 1734, 518. The Waldensians seem not, however, to have shown the same capacity to generate revival as the Salzburgers and Austrians (or indeed as the older Waldensian exiles absorbed into the Bohemian Brethren), perhaps because some were settled and then resettled; some were settled in very small groups; and some of the larger groups remained dependent on Swiss established churches.

It was characteristic of the confusions of jurisdiction in this area that while, for secular government, most of the Defereggental was subject to the Principality of Salzburg, part belonged to the Tirol. In matters spiritual the valley was entirely subject to the archdiocese of Salzburg and belonged to the archdeaconry of Gmiind in Carinthia.

53 Johann Konrad Dippel (1673–1734), the son of a Hessian pastor, moved from Orthodoxy to a radically anti-institutional kind of pietism. A scientist who always had international aristocratic support for his alchemist researches into the production of gold, he was physician to the king of Sweden; his struggles to pit observation against a mechanistic world-picture have been compared to his pietistic and experiential theology of salvation.
