Martin Luther: Manhood and Pugilism
-
This is a past event
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.
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.
