Martin Luther (1483-1546) Martin Luther, noted for beginning the religious Reformation which is the foundation for most of Protestantism today, was a complex man. He could be gentle and refined, he could be rough and coarse. He could write theology; he could write children’s songs. He could expound his views with vehemence; he could minister compassion or joy. Perhaps his one major fault was his view of the Jews. When his attempts at converting a number of Jews to Christianity failed, he made a list of steps that should be taken against them--steps that were followed hundreds of years later by a German despot named Hitler. But the life of the child, Martin Luther, gives no apparent predisposition of the life of the man. martin luther • reformation • biography • luther • catholic church
