Martin Luther's tract »On the Freedom of a Christian« from 1520 caused a sensation among his contemporaries. Indeed, the most printed book of the sixteenth century offers no less than a complete overview of the Wittenberg reformer's theological thinking. In accord with the letter sent to Pope Leo X and even after 500 years, it is still capable of providing us with impulses on how we can reconcile Christianity and freedom with one another.This annotated edition's short, concise explanations and supplementary information placed directly next to the text help elucidate even for readers coming into contact with Luther's thinking for the first time historical backgrounds, lines of argumentation and thought structures.
