Luther's Works - Volume 73

About this Volume

This volume contains theses that Martin Luther drafted (sometimes with the help of his colleague Philip Melanchthon) and the records of Luther's prefatory orations and the arguments made by Luther and his students and colleagues in the university disputations over which he presided between 1537 and 1545.

These disputations offer Luther's extended systematic exploration of the central doctrines of Christian theology, drawn from his mature reflection on the Bible, the medieval theological tradition, and the church fathers, in dialogue and debate with his contemporary opponents. They are an invaluable resource for students of Luther, historians of the Reformation, and contemporary theologians.
