Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a biography of Martin Luther, the pivotal figure of the Protestant Reformation. The author draws on recent scholarship to paint a well-rounded portrait of Luther as a devout Catholic, brilliant academic, and reluctant revolutionary, who challenged the abuses of the Church in order to rediscover true Christianity. The book begins with Luther's childhood in rural Germany and follows his transformation from a shy Augustinian monk into the leader of a movement that divided Europe and changed the course of Western Civilization. It explores the theological and political ideas he developed under the influence of the Renaissance and Humanism, and it provides a vivid account of the growing conflict between Luther and the Church, culminating in the posting of the Ninety-Five Theses and the Diet of Worms. In the end, Luther's writings not only sparked the Reformation, but also helped shape modern German and contributed to the broader Protestant tradition.
