Book excerpt: Excerpt from Martin Luther in the Changing Light of Four Centuries To judge from the frequent mention of Luther's name and the many references to his work in the age of Pro testant scholasticism one might think that his spirit ruled the age. But as a matter of fact the age laid all its em phasis upon Luther's individual words and deeds, upon externalities of all kinds, and received very little impress of his personality. His message was not apprehended. His views were not seriously studied. His writings were not read. It is a significant fact that after the Witten berg and Jena editions of Luther's works had been issued and reprinted several times during the second half of the sixteenth century, with the year 1600 the demand for the works of the Reformer suddenly ceased and did not ap pear again until far into the eighteenth century. It is true a new edition of ten volumes was issued at Alten burg in 1661-1664. But this was a very incomplete edi tion, was published by Order of the Altenburg Count Frederick William, was edited by his court preacher, Sagittarius, and found very little sale. Its publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Martin Luther Among the immortal names that have honored their kind and glorified their God, stands pre-eminently the name of Martin Luther. Yet not in name alone does his greatness shine forth in splendor after the lapse of four centuries, but in word and deed, in character and influence. His private life and public career are a unit, for both were the manifestations of a sincere soul, a generous heart, a true man. The enlightened, civilized world celebrates the four hundredth anniversary of this great man's birth. He belongs to the world, to Church and State, for both have felt the influence of his teachings. In the truest estimate of his God-given work he belongs to no sect or party, he is a man of and for the people. In what better way can the memorial of his birth be observed than by a study of his life, his character, and his works and above all, by a practical appreciation of the influences which have proceeded from him and blessed mankind?

Surely, then, it is incumbent on us who have lighted the beacon of invitation to bid others come and enjoy with us liberty of person and conscience, to know him better. Nor is it only for this. The life of Luther is one for which we find no parallel in any history, and as such it is worth knowing. I have tried to view it from an impartial standpoint, to see him as a man among men, leaving polemics and the niceties of chronology to those who have tastes in that direction. J. H. T.
