Martin Luther's Ninety-Five Theses

Plot

The 95 Theses are reproduced in their entirety, with an introduction and explanatory notes to aid readers in discerning the significance of Luther's call to reformation. "The Ninety-Five Theses is a text that everyone knows, most refer to, but few actually read," writes Stephen Nichols. "Nevertheless, it is such a crucial text that it deserves to be read widely." Toward that end, Nichols has prepared this edition with an illuminating introduction, explanatory notes, and several illustrations. "Martin Luther has left a legacy that continues to enrich the church through his writings. . .," writes Nichols. "All of this may be traced back to the last day in October 1517 and the nailing of the Ninety-Five Theses to the church door."
