152033261-1160Wittenberg Melchior Lotter the younger 1520. Title within nice decorative woodcut border attributed to Lucas Cranach and woodcut initial on A3. 50 ff. Small 4to 212 x 157 mm. Late 19th century half cloth one corner bumped. Wittenberg Melchior Lotter the younger 1520. First printing of the editio definitiva Druck B of the appeal "To the Christian Nobility of the German Nation" addressed to the Emperor and the German nobility. Present here is for the first time the complete enlarged and finally text immediately issued after printing the forthy-eight-page template from Aug. 5 1520. Considered Martin Luther's 1483-1546 pivotal work this is the most influential and important of the first of his three primary treatises. It is Luther's answer to the "Bull of Excommunication" published in Rome in June 1520. A first and most important powerful call to action urging the nobility and leaders to participate actively in reforming the Church and society. Here Luther asserts the right of civil power to reform the spiritual and asks the government to exercise this right. He boldly identifies the pope as the Antichrist and goes on to attack the concept that the Church is superior to the State by his assertion that every baptized Christian is a priest. The new added chapter 26 on the false legal claims of the popes' claims to have taken over the Holy Roman Empire from Byzantine Emperors and brought it into the German nation. This gave the work additional explosive force. Luther then proposes drastic reforms against the authority of the Pope against a celibate priesthood and against corruption in the Church. It is interesting to note that Machiavelli and Morus both looked critically at political power and the behavior of rulers. So in summary these connections demonstrate that Luther's "An den Christlichen Adel deutscher Nation" is embedded within a broader philosopical context that also includes the works of Thomas Morus and Niccolò Machiavelli. Luther's book was in effect a call for the Reformation to begin and had a most profound influence on the history of Europe and later on large parts of the world over all centuries.- Nice copy of outmost and exceptionally rarity. - VD 16 L 3759; Benzing 684; cf.

Antwortt deutsch Mart. Luthers auff Koenig Henrichs von Engelland buch Against Henry King of the English

1522140948314Wittemberg Wittenberg: Nickell Schyrlenz Schirlentz 1522. First edition. Near Fine. First edition of Martin Luther's riposte to King Henry VIII's pamphlet "In Defense of the Seven Sacraments" preceding the Latin edition by one month. Unpaginated 47 pp blank A-F4. Laid paper text in German woodcut title illustration featuring cupids. Collated complete. Small quarto recently bound in brown speckled paper-covered boards. Near Fine with tape marks to rear board perceptible in raking light light toning and thumbing and occasional foxing to contents.

A well-preserved copy of a treatise by one of the most famous men in history. In 1521 Henry VIII of England published an attack on Martin Luther and defense of the Catholic Church that earned him the title "Defender of the Faith" from Pope Leo X. Henry's Assertio Septem Sacramentorum was swiftly translated into German and sold well on the Continent. Luther perceived a threat and published this furious response the following year mocking Henry''s new title and his qualification for the role. Henry himself would soon defy the Catholic Church after his demand for the annulment of his first marriage was rejected but he and Luther continued their acrimonious correspondence and never reconciled.

Artickel so da hetten sollen aufs Concilion zu Mantua oder wo es würde seyn überantwortet werden von unsers teils wegen. Und was wir annemen oder geben Kündren oder nicht. Fr. M. Luther.

1538LCS-1864037The Smalkalde Articles written by Luther in 1536 in preparation for the Council of Mantua."Schmalkaldic Articles are one of the confessions of faith of Lutheranism".4to of 32 ll. Half-vellum flat spine brown morocco lettering piece. 20th century binding.191 x 151 mm.Rare first edition of the "Articles of Smalkalde" written by Luther in 1536 and which offer a synthesis of his doctrine.Graesse Trésor de livres rares 306.Luther's attacks on the papacy were repeated and virulent. In 1535 Pope Paul III wearily proposed convening a council. The Protestants of the Smalkalde League meeting in assembly nevertheless made demands to take part. The council was convened in Mantua for May 1537. Immediately Luther compounded what would later be known as the Smalkalde articles in which he exhibited the essential points of his doctrine. The Council was postponed and did not take place until 1545 in the city of Trent." In 1534 Alessandro Farnese was elected as Pope Paul III with a clear message of internal church reform. To further this mission and to respond to the rise of Protestantism he called for an ecumenical church council to meet at the Italian city of Mantua in 1537. Given the importance of this council for Christian unity and the future of reformed forms of worship the elector of Saxony asked Luther to prepare an official statement of doctrine that would both represent his views and indicate where negociation might be possible. Luther agreed and with some imput from his Wittenberg colleagues carefully laid out what he saw as the central pillars of Christian teaching. Yet these doctrinal statements or articles were never presented at the council which was delayed a number of times finally meeting in Trent beginning in 1545. Instead they were discussed at a general meeting of the Protestant Schmalkaldic League although even here the collected princes and theologians declined to affirm them due mostly to concerns that they were too exclusionary and divisive especially the statements on the Eucharist and papacy. Luther then published the articles in 1538 adding a preface but leaving their structure and content otherwise intact. As these articles offered a clear and comprehensive summary of Luther's doctrine they would be extremely important as a Lutheran confession of faith and in 1580 would be incorporated into the authoritative collection of fundamental Lutheran documents known as the 'Book of Concord'" The Essential Luther 23."Schmalkaldic Articles are one of the confessions of faith of Lutheranism written by Martin Luther in 1536. The articles were prepared as the result of a bull issued by Pope Paul III calling for a general council of the Roman Catholic Church to deal with the Reformation movement. The council was actually postponed several times until it met in Trent in 1545. John Frederick I Lutheran elector of Saxony wished to determine what issues could be negotiated with the Roman Catholics and what could not be compromised. He asked Luther to review earlier statements of faith by the reformers to determine what was absolutely essential to the faith. After Luther prepared the articles he invited several reformers to Wittenberg to discuss them and after some minor changes eight theologians signed them. They were then sent to the elector in January 1537.In February 1537 the Protestant secular heads of state who were members of the Schmalkaldic League met with several theologians at Schmalkalden to decide how to deal with a council of the Roman Catholic Church. Luther became ill and could not attend but John Frederick I presented Luther's articles to the gathering. Because of Luther's somewhat controversial doctrine of the Lord's Supper Philipp Melanchthon urged that the Augsburg Confession and its Apology previously presented to Emperor Charles V adequately presented the reformer's faith and that additional statements should not be added. This decision was adopted and the Schmalkaldic Articles were not officially accepted. They were however circulated and read and 44 theologians signed them as an expression of their personal faith. Subsequently they were included in the Book of Concord 1580.The Schmalkaldic Articles are divided into three sections. The first discusses the unity of God the Trinity the Incarnation and Christ and on these subjects Luther believed there was no real controversy between Roman Catholics and Protestants. The second section dealt with Christ and justification by faith. According to Luther "On this article rests all that we teach and practice against the pope the devil and the world." This section also discusses the mass monastic orders and the papacy. The third section discusses 15 articles that could be considered by Roman Catholics and Protestants. It includes such subjects as sin the Law repentance the sacraments confession the ministry and a definition of the church".FRANCAISLes articles de Smalkalde rédigés par Luther en 1536 en vue du concile de Mantoue.In-4 de 32 ff.

Small paper mark pasted on to lower outer margin on title-page. Title-page with light soiling and last 30 ff. with dampstain to upper and lower outer corner. 120 ff. 1 blank H4 Complete. Exceedingly rare second printing of Luther’s exegetical commentary on the 110th psalm The first being from 1537. This psalm is a cornerstone in Christian theology as it is cited as proof of the plurality of the Godhead and Jesus' supremacy as king priest and Messiah. For this reason Psalm 110 is "the most frequently quoted or referenced psalm in the New Testament".3 Classical Jewish sources in contrast state that the subject of the psalm is either Abraham David or the Jewish Messiah. The printer Schirlentz had previously had printers license revoked because he had published the epigrams of Lemnius. Luther wanted to help Schirlentz and asked the elector personally for permission to print his psalm. Benzing 3322 unknown

First edition of a work on the earliest Christian creeds; first issue with title dated 1536 and corrected in manuscript to read 1538. A very scarce Martin Luther Pamphlet. Benzing 3264. Knaake 766. Kuczynski 1794. Title within woodcut historiated border showing Adam and Eve preacher Luther at pulpit naked figures entering Hell looking back at Moses and the Tables and St. George slaying a dragon. Luther's writing deals with the three oldest creeds the Apostolic the Athanasian and the Ambrosian "Te deum laudamus" translated into German by Luther. The beautiful woodcut border shown in Johannes Luther plate 53 shows the fall and redemption: Adam and Eve at the tree of wisdom eating apples that the serpent offers them. What follows is the drastic expulsion from paradise by horned devils and the severe lords Moses and Aaron who reproachfully show the tablets of the law with the ten commandments. On the right then the crucifixion of Christ who takes away the sins again and below the risen one who defeats the devil with a large spear Moses' tablets of the law also break - an allusion to the time of the New Covenant "Sub gratia" which replaces the "tempus sub lege" the Old Testament covenant of man with God.

Luther sent this letter to his friend Lang in Erfurt in 1522 with the authority to have it printed if he thought it suitable. "As early as March 28 1522 in a letter to Johannes Lange Luther had expressed his intention to write a letter ad Erphordiensem ecclesiam when he found time . this time it was of value to him to address an entire congregation 'gathered in God' . That he in his complaint about those who give cause for rebellion and about the 'ambitious oddballs' who think they are not really preachers if they did not go beyond the simple simplicity of Christ's preaching also some of his Erfurter wanted to meet followers can be clearly read out. The admonition not to start anything in the dark but to leave everything to God in prayer is reminiscent of what is said in the eight sermons and 'of both forms of the sacrament'; here too we speak with moral seriousness about sparing the weak. Worship of the saints is not necessary for one who clings to Christ alone; on the other hand the weak should be spared so that they were gradually led to Christ" WA. Johann Rhau-Grenenberg unknown

155660674Ihenae Jena Rhodius RÃ¶dinger 1556. 4to. In contemporary blindstamped pigskin over wooden boards with three raised bands and two clasps. Wear and soiling to extremities. Pigskin partly detached to upper part of boards. Previous two owner's names in contemporary hand to title-page. A few occassional underlignings and marginal annotations in contemporary hand throughout. Small worm-tract affecting last 20 leaves internally generally fine. 10 367 pp. Rare first printing of Martin Luther's early letters from 1507 to 1522 spanning the years from the celebration of his first Mass to his removal to Wartburg Castle after the Diet of Worms. Among them is a notable letter Cardinal Albrecht Archbishop of Magdeberg and Mainz accompanying a copy of the 95 Theses composed on the very day October 31st 1517 when Luther affixed the Theses to the door of the church in Wittenberg and Luther's first letter to Erasmus penned on March 28th 1519. These letters provide a most interesting perspective into Martin Luther's personal and public reflections on crucial aspects of the early days of the Reformation. The collection encompasses correspondence with figures such as Emperor Charles V Pope Leo X King Henry VIII Georg Spalatin Philip Melanchthon Frederick Elector of Saxony Andreas Karlstadt Cardinal Tommaso de Vio Cajetan and many others. The present work was edited by Joannes Aurifaber 1519-1575 Lutherâ€™s private secretary who lived with Luther at the time of his death: â€œJoannes Vinariensis; 1519â€“1575 was born in the county of Mansfeldt in 1519. He studied at Wittenberg where he heard the lectures of Luther and afterwards became tutor to Count Mansfeldt. In the war of 1544â€“45 he accompanied the army as field-preacher and then lived with Luther as his famulus or private secretary being present at his death in 1546. In the following year he spent six months in prison with John Frederick elector of Saxony who had been captured by the emperor Charles V. He held for some years the office of court-preacher at Weimar but owing to theological disputes was compelled to resign this office in 1561. In 1566 he was appointed to the Lutheran church at Erfurt and there remained till his death in November 1575. Besides taking a share in the first collected or Jena edition of Lutherâ€™s works 1556 Aurifaber sought out and published at Eisleben in 1564â€“1565 several writings not included in that edition. He also published Lutherâ€™s Letters 1556 1565 and Table Talk 1566. This popular work which has given him most of his fame is unfortunately but a second or third hand compilation.â€ Encyclopedia Britannica. A second volume was published as â€œSecundus tomus epistolarumâ€ in 1565. Adams L1805 BM STC German 1455-1600; p. 535 hardcover
