Martin Luther: Manhood and Pugilism

Martin Luther: Manhood and Pugilism
-

This is a past event

Please register via Eventbrite: Professor Roper's recent book on Martin Luther provides a critical reassessment of the German Reformer during the anniversary of his alleged 'posting of the 95 theses' on a church door in Wittenberg - which most probably did not even happen. Luther, not the 'deus ex machina', and not the benign reformer, but a manipulative and belligerent misogynist with bawdy humour? Please join us for what will be a unique event with a world famous historian who has done much to advance the history of early modern society, gender and culture around the German Reformation.

Speaker
Professor Lyndal Roper, Regius Professor of Modern History at the University of Oxford
