It is an accepted conclusion nowadays among the best students
of the Protestant Rebellion of the sixteenth century that there are
“two Luthers—the Luther of panegyric, of romance, and fiction,
and the Luther of history and fact. The former appears in the pulpit, in
the Sunday school, and in partisan biographies; the latter may be
discovered from a careful study of his writings and those of his
contemporaries, but above all from his private letters, of which
former devotees of Luther would only publish what they thought to
his credit, garbling or suppressing the rest.” These words, quoted
from a rare little tract on Luther, written nearly thirty years ago by a
prelate of the Church, who was one of the foremost Reformation
scholars of that day, may well serve as the keynote of this present
work with its powerful contrasts between the Luther of fact and the
Luther of fiction.
This modest volume is issued to present to the public at large
some of the most prominent and important features in the life
and career of Martin Luther, the founder of Protestantism.
