Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the everyday individuals who became the first Protestants, the book reveals the stories of shoemakers, housewives, students, and politicians who followed Martin Luther. Through primary sources like pamphlets and diaries, the author explores the Reformation's origins and the essence of Protestantism. Unlike traditional views that link the Reformation to German absolutism, the narrative highlights it as a significant assertion of Western values, emphasizing social reform, individual conviction, and a rejection of corruption and empty rituals.
