Summary
In the period of time between Luther's death, the Smalcaldic war (1546/47) and the Thirty Years War, the Lutheran denomination was confronted with particular challenges. Thomas Kaufmann's analysis of the formation of Lutheran Protestantism is based on the hypothesis that Lutheran Protestantism developed its »identity« during crises, controversies and conflicts.
