Description
MARTIN GRESCHAT
Martin Greschat’s seminal work is the first biography of the important Protestant reformer to be written in over seventy years. Now translated into English, this work–“the most comprehensive account of Bucer’s place within the context of the history of the Reformation” (The Oxford Encyclopedia of the Reformation)–transcends normal biographies by providing information in relation to the social and political context of the sixteenth century. Lucid in style and mature in scholarship, Greschat’s Martin Bucer is a splendid contribution to Reformation studies.
