Description

For the compilers of the Index librorum prohibitorum, Martin Luther was the most significant heretic of the first class. This book is the only surviving copy of the Dutch translation of Luther's principal work on the Eucharist, Vom Abendmal Christi, Bekendnis. The Belijdinghe was one of several clandestine editions published in Antwerp by a printer who often used the pseudonym "Hans Luft of Marburg." This version was long misidentified as a sermon by Luther.

Creator

Luther, Martin, 1483–1546, Zwingli, Ulrich, 1484–1531, and Oecolampadius, Johann, 1482–1531.
