Papers by Caleb Shaw
The 1527 outbreak of plague, however, elicited the publication of Luther’s remarkable German treatise, titled ‘Ob Man Fur Dem Sterben Fliehen Möge’, which is typically translated in English as ‘Whether One May Flee From Deadly Plague’.
This source analysis of Luther's plague treatise seeks to understand the great reformer's motivation behind writing such an extraordinary work and provide historical context for the modern reader.
In this brief exposition, I explore the historical context and theological implications of this extraordinary event, which fashioned the future fabric of Western culture and religion.
