1. Luther
Man Between God and the Devil
A dense, scholarly yet accessible portrait of Martin Luther that places him at the crossroads of late-medieval piety and the upheavals of the Reformation, tracing his theological development, inner spiritual struggles, and explosive public controversies. The work shows how his writings, use of print, and appeal to popular sentiment transformed religious practice, provoked political and social conflict—including reactions to the Peasants’ War—and helped reshape early modern Europe, while also exploring tensions between his reforming zeal and moments of intolerance and authoritarianism.
