Summary/Abstract: The article aims to analyze the affirmation of the anabaptist religious identity and freedom in the conflict between the Ottomans and Christians in the 16th-17th centuries. The research will also tackles the factors that have led to a change in the axiology of radical Christians in the assessment of Islam and the Ottoman Empire.
