Sumario:Vol. 3. Describes the final 14 years of Luther's life, beginning with the accession of Elector John Frederick in 1532. Some Reformation developments continued without him, his Catholic opponents paid only partial attention to him, his personality displayed great tensions, and his judgment, errors. "Yet the preservation of the church--those confessing the Reformation gospel being identical, according to Luther, with the true church--dominated Luther's concerns."
Vol. 2. Describes the years in which the distinctive aspects of the Reformation took shape. During this time four difficult conflicts--the Peasants' War, the interchange between Luther and Erasmus, debates on the Lord's Supper, and the rise of Anabaptist groups--strengthened the need to fashion new orders for governing the church and the need to develop new patterns for worship and the instruction of youth. Luther the theologian was occupied with problems of politics, economy, law, and education. In addition, his own life was altered by his marriage.
Vol. 1. Recounts Luther's youth and young adulthood up to the period of the Diet of Worms. Discusses Luther's education at the University of Erfurt, his monastic life, his canonical trial in 1519, the Leipzig debate, and his earliest contributions to the beginning of the Reformation.
Notas:Translation of: Martin Luther.
