Brand Luther
Brand Luther: How an Unheralded Monk Turned His Small Town Into a Center of Publishing, Made Himself the Most Famous Man in Europe--And Started the Protestant Reformation | Andrew Pettegree
3 posts | 1 read | 2 to read
In Brand Luther, historian Andrew Pettegree illustrates Martin Luther's great gifts not simply as a theologian, but as a communicator, indeed, as the world's first mass-media figure; its first brand. Publishing in advance of the Reformation's 500th anniversary, Brand Luther fuses the history of religion, printing and capitalism into one enthralling story, revolutionising our understanding of one of the pivotal figures and eras in all of human history.

Engaging and interesting. An overview of the intersection between the Reformation and the German printing industry with emphasis on Wittenberg. A good read for fans of book history, religious history, and European history.

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join the fun if you want.
