Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Gottfried G. Krodel, Th.D., the editor and chief translator of this volume, is Professor of History, holding the Martin Luther Chair in Reformation History at Valparaison University, Indiana. He received his doctorate from the University of Erlangen, Germany.

Martin Luther stands as one of the most significant figures in Western history. His distinction as the father of the Protestant Reformation is augmented by his innovative use of new technology (the printing press), his translation of the Christian Bible into the vernacular, and his impact upon European society. Born in 1483 to middle-class parents in Saxony, eastern Germany, he became an Augustinian monk, a priest, a professor of biblical literature, a reformer, a husband and father. He died in 1546 after having witnessed the birth of a renewal movement that would result in a profound shift in faith, politics, and society. He has been both praised and vilified for what he preached and wrote. His thought continues to influence all Christians and to animate the movement that bears his name.
