Book excerpt: Luther at Wartburg Castle is a biographic chronicle of the great Reformer Martin Luther, covering a crucial period of his life. Martin Luther was taken from the spotlight by Friedrich the Wise, who felt Luther's fame was troublesome in the context of the religious upheaval ongoing at the time. It was determined that Luther should stay in Wartburg Castle, and furthermore disguise his appearance so that he would not be recognized by those manning the great structure. Having grown a beard, Luther assumed the identity of 'Knight George', and was thus able to stay in the castle unmolested. Although the harsh and cold environment wore on his health, during this period of seclusion Luther was able to compose one of the most important translations of his life - that of the Biblical New Testament. Although Luther was separated from his supporters, he continued to correspond regularly with them via letters. He was aware of events unfolding in the religious epicenter of Wittenburg, and in wider Europe. These letters are alluded to in this work, which draws upon Luther's own writings as a primary source. John Gottlieb Morris was a Lutheran minister who wrote many books on religious topics in the 19th century. As well as being a pastor, Morris was a passionate collector of books, assembling many thousands of volumes of known and obscure works for his library.

Book excerpt: In 1521, the Catholic Church declared war on Martin Luther. The German monk had already been excommunicated the year before, after nailing his Ninety-Five Theses -- which accused the Church of rampant corruption -- to the door of a Saxon church. Now, the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V called for Luther "to be apprehended and punished as a notorious heretic." The edict was akin to a death sentence: If Luther was caught, he would almost inevitably be burned at the stake, his fragile movement crushed, and the nascent Protestant Reformation strangled in its cradle. In Luther's Fortress, acclaimed historian James Reston, Jr. describes this crucial but little-known episode in Luther's life and reveals its pivotal role in Christian history. Realizing the danger to their leader, Luther's followers spirited him away to Wartburg Castle, deep in central Germany. There he hid for the next ten months, as his fate -- and that of the Reformation -- hung in the balance. Yet instead of cowering in fear, Luther spent his time at Wartburg strengthening his movement and refining his theology in ways that would guarantee the survival of Protestantism. He devoted himself to biblical study and spiritual contemplation; he fought both his papist critics and his own inner demons (and, legend has it, the devil himself); and he held together his fractious and increasingly radicalized reform movement from afar. During this time Luther also crystallized some of his most significant ideas about Christianity and translated the New Testament into German -- an accomplishment that, perhaps more than any other, solidified his legacy and spread his bold new religious philosophy across Europe. Drawing on Luther's correspondence, notes, and other writings, Luther's Fortress presents an earthy, gripping portrait of the Reformation's architect at this transformational moment, revealing him at his most productive, courageous, and profound.

Book excerpt: Though most of the Protestant world can trace its roots back to the Reformation, many people today have only a vague knowledge of Martin Luther's writings. "Didn't he write the Ninety-Five Theses?" Jack Kilcrease and Erwin Lutzer step into this vacuum with a carefully selected collection of Luther's works. Centered around the five solas of the Reformation (sola Scriptura, sola fide, sola gratia, sola Christus, soli Deo gloria), the selections offer readers an accessible primer on works that are foundational to the theology of Protestantism in all its forms. Introductions to each writing include an explanation of the historical context and the theological significance of the piece. Students of the Bible, pastors, teachers, and seminary students will find this collection an enlightening introduction to Luther in his own words and a useful addition to their libraries.
