The life of Martin Luther King Jr. was painfully short but joyously valuable.

Five hundred years after Luther's now famous 95 Theses appeared, Eric Metaxas, acclaimed biographer of the best-selling Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy and Amazing Grace: William Wilberforce and the Heroic Campaign to End Slavery, paints a startling portrait of the wild figure whose adamantine faith cracked the edifice of Western Christendom and dragged medieval Europe into the future.

Ob Martin Luthers Thesen am 31. Oktober 1517 tatsächlich an die Wittenberger Schlosskirche genagelt wurden, ist umstritten. Sicher ist allerdings, dass die Thesen durch Briefe und Nachdrucke in Windeseile verbreitet wurden. Was bis dahin in einem akademischen Disput nur allmählich bekannt geworden wäre, machten Buchdruck und Korrespondenz unter Humanisten zu einem öffentlichen Ereignis. In seinen Thesen wendet sich Luther gezielt gegen den Ablass.

Presented with an ecumenical perspective, Prof. Flanagin's course is enlightening and entertaining.

The Making of Martin Luther takes a provocative look at the intellectual emergence of one of the most original and influential minds of the 16th century. Richard Rex traces how, in a concentrated burst of creative energy in the few years surrounding his excommunication by Pope Leo X in 1521, this lecturer at an obscure German university developed a startling new interpretation of the Christian faith that brought to an end the dominance of the Catholic Church in Europe.

Convertido en superpotencia militar y económica luego de la victoria obtenida en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Estados Unidos pasó a disfrutar de un período creciente de prosperidad que daba crédito al denominado “sueño americano”. Sin embargo, el influjo de aquella era dorada no alcanzaba a la mayor parte de la comunidad negra, la cual seguía ocupando el estrato más bajo de la opulenta sociedad norteamericana, excluida de los beneficios de que gozaban sus compatriotas blancos.

Martin Luther's posting of the 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg on October 31, 1517, is one of the most famous events of Western history. It inaugurated the Protestant Reformation and has for centuries been a powerful and enduring symbol of religious freedom of conscience and of righteous protest against the abuse of power. But did it actually really happen? In this engagingly written, wide-ranging, and insightful work of cultural history, leading Reformation historian Peter Marshall reviews the available evidence and concludes that very probably, it did not.

To most Americans, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. represent contrasting ideals. The struggle for black freedom is wrought with the same contrasts. While nonviolent direct action is remembered as an unassailable part of American democracy, the movement's militancy is either vilified or erased outright. In The Sword and the Shield, Peniel E. Joseph upends these misconceptions and reveals a nuanced portrait of two men who, despite markedly different backgrounds, inspired and pushed each other throughout their adult lives.

Today, a man born Michael King Jr. is one of the most famous Americans in history, his name having been changed at the age of five to one the world fondly remembers: Martin Luther King Jr. The life and legend of Dr. King have been told to every American, many of whom come away equating King with the Civil Rights Movement as a whole.

He was a scholar and a very gifted orator, but, before all else, he was a pastor, a theologian, a martyr, a Christian.

In the midst of a tumultous public life, King prayed for guidance and depended upon God’s spirit to lead him. 

Martin Luther King Jr. may be America's most revered political figure, commemorated in statues, celebrations, and street names around the world. But despite his stature, the significance of King's writings and political thought remains underappreciated. In To Shape a New World, Tommie Shelby and Brandon Terry state that the marginalization of King's ideas reflects a romantic consensus history that renders the civil rights movement inherently conservative - an effort not at radical reform but at "living up to" enduring ideals laid down by the nation's founders.
