This new version of a work of core literature gives reliable, concise and professional information on the life, works and influence of Martin Luther. In the 64 individual articles, written by 30 renowned Luther researchers, all the fundamental aspects are presented in detail and in a comprehensible way. The articles from prior editions have been thoroughly revised. Also, nine more, new articles have been added. The book will be of interest to experts, theology lovers and those involved in bordering disciplines as well, such as history, German studies or philosophy. Numerous cross-references as well as detailed indexes make it easy for the reader to either commence with or expand his independent studies of Luther.

»The present volume is an excellent survey of the current research on Martin Luther. It offers 60 essays by leading experts on a variety of subjects – not only the most obvious subjects which have been at the forefront of past research on Luther but also subjects that arise from current debates in scholarship or issues in today's church and society.«
Christoph Stenschke in Studia Historiae Ecclesiasticae 34 (2008), p. 392–395
