Luther and his world examines the central figure in the Protestant Reformation of the sixteenth century. The author explains Luther's background, and helps the reader to understand the process that led up to his rebellion against the late medieval church. The world of the early Reformers is brought vividly to life, together with their battles and disagreements over what was right doctrine and what was not, and how the church should go forward. Finally, the author offers an assessment of Luther's significance for and contribution to western culture and Christianity.
