History of the Reformation in the Sixteenth Century, Volume 1

by Jean-Henri Merle d'Aubigné

This volume is the first installment of a five-volume work that recounts the history of the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century. The author, a Swiss Protestant pastor and historian, delves into the life and work of Martin Luther, tracing his journey from a devout Catholic to a champion of theological reform. The book covers the period from Luther's youth and conversion to his early challenges to the authority of the Catholic Church, focusing on the controversial issue of indulgences and Luther's response with his famous Ninety-Five Theses. D'Aubigné's work sheds light on the events and personalities that shaped the Reformation, offering insights into the theological, social, and political context of this pivotal era in Christian history.
