Lecture: "Martin Luther and the Invention of the Reformation"

-

Location: 138 DeBartolo Hall

Join the Nanovic Institute for European Studies, the Department of English Early Modern Group, and the Notre Dame Institute for Advanced Study for a public lecture by Professor Peter Marshall, historian from the University of Warwick.

In his lecture, Marshall will compellingly explore the myriad ways in which the figure of Martin Luther, and the nature of the Reformation itself, have been remembered and used for their own purposes by subsequent generations of Protestants and others—in Germany, Britain, the United States and elsewhere. Professor Marshall’s lecture invites renewed reflection on how the past speaks to the present and on how, all too often, the present creates the past in its own image and likeness.
 
This talk is open to all students, staff, faculty and members of the general public.
