Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents readers with a collection of German Christian hymns from the era of the Reformation, the era in which Martin Luther notably challenged the authority of the Roman Catholic Church. The hymns, many of which were written by Luther himself, provided historical context for the Reformation as well as for Christian belief during the sixteenth century. The hymns discuss themes of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit as well as faith and salvation. One will find hymns appropriated from Roman Catholic and even older traditions, others revised and adapted to serve Luther's burgeoning movement, and still more written as unique expressions of the new theology. The depth of theme and breadth of perspective in this book will be of interest to historians, students of religion, and anyone seeking to learn more about the development of Christianity.
