Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition contains the bulk of Melanchthon's letters to a range of intellectuals of his day, and is a fascinating window into the heart of the Protestant Reformation. This new translation into modern American English is followed by the original letters in German. This is Volume I in the Complete Works of Philipp Melanchthon, and contains a new 2023 Afterword by the Translator. This collection of letters covers a broad range of theological topics, including his participation in the 1546 Schmalkaldischer Krieg (Schmalkaldic War). They provide a fascinating look into the key figure building the theology of the Protestant Reformations. Most of Melanchthon’s letters were to and from Luther, in addition to a wide range of scholars including Erasmus. Luther first corresponded with Melanchthon in 1518, and this collection begins with that initial letter. From that moment to Luther's death, the two enjoyed a close relationship. Melanchthon moved from Tubingen to the University of Wittenberg later that year, as filled the position of the Chair of Ancient Greek at the age of 21. Here Melanchthon met Luther for the first time, and to Luther's surprise, he earned his keep as an astute professor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work offers a comprehensive examination of how Philip Melanchthon (1497-1560) -- a great philologist, pedagogue, and theologian of the Reformation -- used Greek patristic sources throughout his extensive career. The Cappadocian Fathers (here identified as Gregory Thaumaturgus, Basil of Caesarea, Gregory Nazianzen, and Gregory of Nyssa) were received through the medieval period to be exemplary theologians. In the hands of Melanchthon, they become tools to articulate the Evangelical-Lutheran theological position on justification by grace through faith alone, the necessity of formal education for theologians in literature and the natural sciences, the freedom of the will under divine grace, exemplars for bishops and even princes, and (not least) as models of Attic Greek grammar and biblical exegesis for university students. The book is organized around Melanchthon's use of Cappadocian works against his opponents: Roman Catholic, the Radical Reformers, the Reformed, and in Intra-Lutheran controversies. The author places Melanchthon within the context of the patristic reception of his time. Moreover, an appendix offers a sketch of the "Cappadocian canon" of the sixteenth century, with notation of the particular sources for Melanchthon's knowledge and the references to these works in modern scholarly sources. While often accused by his critics (past and present) of being arbitrary in his selection of patristic authorities, too free with his quotations, and too anxious for theological harmony, this work shows Melanchthon "at work" to reveal the consistent manner and Evangelical-Lutheran method by which he used patristic material to proclaim "Christ and his benefits" throughout his multifaceted career.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These twelve essays by international scholars investigate Melanchthon's theological activities as teacher, confessor of the faith, and defender of his doctrine and ecclesiastical policies as they developed within the context of his service of society and church. In the past quarter century Melanchthon researchers have scrutinized older, mostly negative, interpretations of the Preceptor Germaniae. The editors present in this volume precisely focused appraisals of »Master Philip« in his role as theologian at the university and in the service of his own prince and others. By carefully placing his use of Aristotle, his understanding of the nature of training for pastoral ministry, his biblical exegesis in context, by analyzing four of his attempts to formulate Wittenberg teaching in public confession, by assessing how his own writings took on normative character for the church, and by tracing his thinking on the free will and the Lord's Supper in the midst of controversy, these authors offer carefully etched portraits of Melanchthon as Preceptor ecclesiae. This volume contributes to the expansion of our understanding of Melanchthon as key figure in the Wittenberg Reformation and the currents of controversy that have long surrounded the interpretation of his contributions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the hitherto neglected relationship between the English Reformation and the Lutheran scholar Philip Melanchthon (1497-1560). It looks at how Henry, following his break with Rome, flirted with Lutheranism as a doctrine to replace Catholicism, before the eventual collapse of the policy and its replacement with a more moderate reform programme under Cranmer. It then goes on to investigate how Melanchthon, as the leading proponent of Lutheranism influenced successive royal governments, both positively and negatively, as they struggled to impose their own brand of doctrinal conformity on the English church. By refracting the well known narrative of the English Reformation through the lens of Melanchthon, new light is shed on many events that have puzzled historians. The study provides fascinating new perspectives on such questions as why Henry suddenly abandoned his Lutheran policy, why Cromwell fell from power in 1540 and even insights into Elizabeth's personal beliefs. By tying events in England into the context of the wider European Reformation, through the work of Philip Melanchthon, this book offers fresh insights into the nature and development of early evangelical Protestantism.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ... chapter xxv the increase of sorrows Luther and Melanchthon's Last Correspondence--Luther's Death--Melanchthon's Funeral Oration over Luther--His Letter about Luther--Alliance against the Protestants. th E year 1546 was one of the darkest and saddest of Melanchthon's life. In October and December of the previous year he and Luther had together gone to Mansfeld to settle the shameful disputes between the counts. Their success had been only partial, and the counts desired that they should continue the good offices of mediation. Melanchthon was excused from going because of ill health. Luther made ready to go, and, January 20th, invited Melanchthon to sup with him. This was the last time that Melanchthon sat at Luther's table. Three days later Luther started for Mansfeld, not to return alive. The letters which passed between the two during the next three or four weeks furnish an abiding proof of the admiration and love which each had for the other. Melanchthon's letter of February 18th, the day on which Luther died, is addressed, "To the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther, distinguished for his learning, virtue, and wisdom, Doctor of theology, Restorer of the pure doctrine of the Gospel, my most dear Father.' This was written in answer to Luther's letter of February 14th, addressed, "To Philip Melanchthon, most worthy Brother in Christ." Earlier, Luther had addressed him as " the faithful servant of God, and most dear Brother." February 19th, letters reached Wittenberg announcing Luther's death. Melanchthon at once wrote to Jonas, who had gone with Luther: "This morning we received your very sad letters, one to the illustrious Prince Elector, and the other to the Reverend Pastor of our Church, in which with great sorrow you write of the death of...
