Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Martin Luther (1483-1546) was a German theologian, reformer, and central figure in the Protestant Reformation. His writings challenged established practices within the late medieval Church and contributed to the development of new theological frameworks within Christianity. Works such as the Ninety-Five Theses and the Large Catechism remain foundational to Lutheran thought and to the broader history of Christian doctrine.
