In 1523, in one of the most daring and remarkable events in the
history of the Reformation, a woman challenged the Catholic
establishment to a public debate. The issue was the persecution of
a young Lutheran student in Ingolstadt.Argula von Grumbach's
writings on this and many other topics were widely circulated: her
first publication alone went through sixteen editions. She
addressed the Catholic theologians of Ingolstadt, the Dukes of
Bavaria and the Councils of Ingolstadt and Regensburg. She also met
with and conducted an extensive correspondence with Luther,
Osiander and many of the leading reformers.Professor Peter Matheson
here provides translations of all her published works together with
introductions. He gives a full biographical account of von
Grumbach, analyses her use of Scripture and discusses her role as a
woman of the Reformation.The rediscovery of Protestanism's first
female theologian and author affords a wealth of new insight into
the history of the Reformation; the role of women in Church, state
and society; and a woman's use of Scripture, which in many ways
anticipates the flowering of feminist theology today.
