Law and protestantism : the legal teachings of the Lutheran Reformation
"The Lutheran Reformation catalyzed immense and far-reaching change in both Church and state and in both religious and secular ideas. This book investigates the transformation of law and theology born of Lutheran teachings of the sixteenth century. Profound changes in legal theory, political organization, marriage, education, and social welfare were inscribed in the legal and confessional systems of that period and have had an enduring effect on the modern Protestant world and beyond."
