Martin Luther’s rationalist convictions changed not only the development of the church, and of Europe post-Reformation, but also exercised a profound influence on how the individual relates to society. OUT OF THE STORM is a revelatory biography of this remarkable Renaissance man – the first major new biography of Martin Luther in over 50 years.
Martin Luther changed Europe and, through Europe, the world. It was he who finally exposed the myth of a unified Latin Christendom, in fact only held together by crusades, heresy hunts, Inquisition, and priestly magic. Though not the first radical thinker to challenge papal pretensions and the doctrines they were founded on, by his defiance Luther created the biggest cause célèbre of the age. But this renegade monk did not just split Europe into rival Protestant and Catholic camps – by urging Christians to read and interpret the Bible for themselves, he gave a religious boost to that emancipation of the individual we associate with the Renaissance; and by putting men and women in charge of their own destiny he made an immeasurable cultural impact, the effects of which can be felt to this day
In 1921 King Charles V summoned Luther to demand a retraction of his objections at which gathering of dignatories:
The Can of Worms
The Meet of Worms
The Diet of Worms
Good Luck!
