The studies in this volume illuminate the thought and life of
Philip Melanchthon, one of the most neglected major figures in
Reformation history and theology. Melanchthon was one of the most
widely published and respected thinkers in his own day, who
authored some of the sixteenth-century's most important books on
Latin and Greek grammar, rhetoric, dialectics, and history, to say
nothing of his theological output, which included the first
overview of Protestant theology, the first Protestant commentaries
on Romans, 1 & 2 Corinthians, and John. He was also the chief
drafter of the Augsburg Confession and wrote its defense, the
Apology. These essays, written over the past twenty years,
commemorate the 450th anniversary of Melanchthon's death in 2010.
The articles provide a wide-ranging picture of Melanchthon's
thought and life with topics including his view of free will,
approaches to biblical interpretation, his perspective on the
church fathers and world history, and comparisons to other
important figures of the age, including Calvin, Luther and Erasmus.
