A reform, a book: Luther and the Palatine Bible

In 1517, Martin Luther spoke out against the doctrine of indulgences promoted by Rome in his 95 theses. Five hundred years later, the city of Liège – in collaboration with the Network of Libraries and Artistic Collections of the University of Liège and the Luther, Liège 2017 not-for-profit association – presents this exhibition, which is based on a key piece: the Palatine Bible, Luther's German translation of the Bible. Other pieces complement the presentation, helping to explain Lutheranism, its challenges, dissemination and reception, etc.
