Leading scholars of the older and the younger generation of Luther research join forces to explore the different views of the reformer in order to establish a more precise picture of this connection.
There are few historical figures in church history whose biographies are so closely linked to their theologies as they are with Martin Luther. Contrary to research at the beginning of the 20th century, recent Luther biographies have tended to loosen the connection between his biography and his theology. Thus the relationship between Luther's life and work has to be reconceptualized to combine specifically historical and theological approaches. In this volume, leading scholars of the older and the younger generation of Luther research join forces to explore the different views of the reformer in order to establish a more precise picture of this connection.
