Description

This volume examines the process by which the teaching and method of Luther and Melanchton was carried forward during the transition from "Reformation" to the settled forms of church life called "Protestant Orthodoxy". It shows how Luther's and Melanchton's students strove to convey the insights of their mentors to their own age, within the academic and political context in which they lived; and how the method and teaching of the two Wittenberg reformers shaped the thought and ecclesiastical life of following generations.

Table of Contents

  • Theology in the context of controversy
