Rediscover Luther: from «Heretic» to «Common Christian Teacher»
Abstract
The fifth centenary of the Protestant Reformation has provided an opportunity for a renewed historiographic review of the life of reformer Martin Luther and the Reformation in general. Moreover, the rise of the ecumenical movement has facilitated a more balanced and serene approach to Luther’s life and work from the Roman Catholic perspective. This article focuses on the historical and doctrinal evolution of the Catholic assessment of Martin Luther and his theology.
