Martin Luther - monk, priest, intellectual, or revolutionary - has
been a controversial figure since the sixteenth century. Most
studies of Luther stress his personality, his ideas, and his
ambitions as a church reformer. In this book, Christopher Ocker
brings a new perspective to this topic, arguing that the different
ways people thought about Luther mattered far more than who he
really was. Providing an accessible, highly contextual, and
non-partisan introduction, Ocker says that religious conflict
itself served as the engine of religious change. He shows that the
Luther affair had a complex political anatomy which extended far
beyond the borders of Germany, making the debate an international
one from the very start. His study links the Reformation to
pluralism within western religion and to the coexistence of
religions and secularism in today's world. Luther, Conflict, and
Christendom includes a detailed chronological chart.
