Description
Marius provides a full portrait of Luther: his inner compulsions, his struggle with himself and his God, the gestation of his theology, his relations with contemporaries, and his responses to opponents. Focusing on the productive years 1516-1525, Marius' account of Luther's writings yields a rich picture of the development of Luther's thought.
