Overview

Taking a closer look at pictures of Protestantism Cranach's portraits of Martin Luther and Katharina von Bora, the Protestant arch parents, will catch the observer's eye. How have they been presented as man and woman, though? Which characteristics have accumulated in verbal images and figurative drawings and paintings in the past five centuries? What has been the role of Katharina and her statements about Martin and their marriage in this context? This volume will introduce you to 500 years of partly polemic and partly sacralizing reception. Besides presentations over the centuries in-depth exemplary work on source material will provide interesting insights in church historical research including gender aspects.
