This encyclopedia is a collaboration of the leading scholars in the
field of Reformation research and the thought, life, and legacy of
influence - for good and for ill - of Martin Luther. In 2017 the
world marks 500 years since the beginning of the public work of
Luther, whose protest against corrupt practices and the way
theology was taught captured Europe's attention from 1517 onward.
Comprising 125 extensive articles in three volumes, the Oxford
Encyclopedia of Martin Luther examines: - the contexts that shaped
his social and intellectual world, such as previous theological and
institutional developments - the genres in which he worked,
including some he essentially created - the theological and ethical
writings that make up the lion's share of his massive intellectual
output - the complicated and contested history of his reception
across the globe and across a span of disciplines This
indispensable work seeks both to answer perennial questions as well
as to raise new ones. Intentionally forward-looking in approach,
the ORE of Martin Luther provides a reliable survey to such issues
as, for instance, how did Luther understand God? What did he mean
by his notion of "vocation?" How did he make use of, but also
transform, medieval thought patterns and traditions? How did Luther
and the Reformation re-shape Europe and launch modernity? What were
his thoughts about Islam and Judaism, and how did the history of
the effects of those writings unfold? Scholars from a variety of
disciplines - economic history, systematic theology, gender and
cultural studies, philosophy, and many more - propose an agenda for
examining future research questions prompted by the harvest of
decades of intense historical scrutiny and theological inquiry.
