Der hier als Hörbuch vorgelegte "Große Katechismus" Martin Luthers dürfte in dieser Form kaum geeignet sein, Atheisten und Andersgläubige für den christlichen Glauben zu gewinnen. Vor rund 500 Jahren hat der Reformator aufgeschrieben, was er für den Kernbestand christlichen Glaubens hielt. Dieser besteht aus fünf "Hauptstücken" die Luther ausführlich kommentiert. Heute würde man diese Erläuterungen ganz, ganz anders formulieren.

It inaugurated the Protestant Reformation and has for centuries been a powerful and enduring symbol of religious freedom of conscience and of righteous protest against the abuse of power. But did it actually really happen? In this engagingly written, wide-ranging, and insightful work of cultural history, leading Reformation historian Peter Marshall reviews the available evidence and concludes that very probably, it did not.

At the beginning of the 16th century, a religious revolution shattered the outward appearance of conformity among Europe's Roman Catholics...a conformity that had been the basis of Western European unity for over a thousand years.
