The particular interest of Professor Spitz has been the close
relationship and synergy between humanism and religious reform in
the transformation of European culture in the 16th century. Within
the general cultural and intellectual context of the Renaissance
and Reformation movements, the present volume focuses on Luther and
German humanism; a subsequent collection looks more particularly at
the place of education and history in the thought of the time. The
articles here discuss Luther's imposing knowledge of the classics,
his attitudes towards learning, the religious and patriotic
interests of the humanists, and the role of a younger generation of
humanists in the Reformation. Also included is a far-reaching
appraisal of the impact of humanism and the Reformation on Western
history.
