Recenzii
'This is no partisan book. Readers will find themselves surprised by, and disabused of, common assumptions about the Reformation being primarily theological or populist.' P. E. Blosser, Choice
'The grand total of events, persons, writings, places, and ideas that Ocker surveys is astounding. And yet, amidst the copious details and the range of materials, the book does not leave one bewildered. Ocker manages to narrate a compelling and readable account of the controversy about Luther from Wittenberg in the early 16th century to South America in the 21st.' Jarrett A. Carty, Reading Religion
'Martin Luther is one of history's most extensively debated and studied figures. Ocker's focus is not only Luther's biography or theology. Rather, this work explores factors that contributed to the reception of Luther's teaching in both Europe and America from the era of the Reformation until the present. This book's clarity about the reception history of Luther's teaching on various levels of political contexts from nations to individuals make it important reading for both historians and theologians.' Aaron Klink, Religious Studies Review
'The book itself, in its paperback incarnation, is handsomely produced … Christopher Ocker's elegant and richly documented study also inspires a sense of déjà-vu, echoing the debates of the 1970s and '80s which pitted social historians of the Reformation against church historians …' David Bagchi, The Journal of Ecclesiastical History

Martin Luther was the subject of a religious controversy that never really came to an end. The Reformation was a controversy about him.
