Description - Tradition and Authority in the Reformation by Scott H. Hendrix
This collection of articles examines the transformation of elements of the medieval tradition into new claims of authority during the Reformation. As well as the reinterpretation of church authority by the reformers, the essays examine the social context of the German Reformation: the communities which influenced Luther; the positive stance taken towards the Jewish community by Urbanus Rhegius; and a Protestant treatment of domestic relations incorporating a spirited defence of women. The collection also contains contributions covering clerical identity, Luther's own authority as a reformer, and the religious decisions of the princes.
