His bold stand sparked the Protestant Reformation and marked one of the great turning points in history.Martin Luther, a spiritual and historical giant, is loved and hated to this dayand for good reason. The anniversary of the revolution he helped start has produced a spate of doorstop-sized biographies. Luckily, today there exists a more accessible format that does justice to such a colorful, complex character and his tumultuous life and times the graphic novel.In a world of grinding poverty, plague, and religious superstitions, a child of laborers distinguishes himself at university until a lightning-bolt conversion lands him in a monastery. There his personal battles with disillusionment and doubt culminate in a cry for freedom. The rest is the stuff of history and legend: Luthers revolt against Rome with the nailing of ninety-five theses to the church door in Wittenberg; his time spent incognito at Wartburg Castle, where he famously throws an inkpot at the devil; his seditious translation and publication of the Bible in the language of the people; his scandalous marriage to former nun Katharina von Bora; and, in later years, his ugly tirades against peasants, Anabaptists, and Jews.Each chapter of Luthers life comes vividly to life thanks to cutting-edge graphic techniques, meticulous historical research, and compelling writing. This could be the biggest breakthrough for Martin Luther since the Gutenberg press.With its splendid color and unvarnished narrative, this is surely the most successful graphic biography ever. --Georg Howahl, WAZ...2763544Renegade178205https://www.gandhi.com.mx/renegade-9780874862089/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2212836/33202d07-7f6e-4eeb-87d9-3380bdde390c.jpg?v=638383664849230000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20179780874862089_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_<ul><li>Major publicity: In this commemorative year, the Reformation is the subject of movies such as the American Public Television series The Reformation: This Changed Everything, PBS: Martin Luther: An Idea That Changed the World, museum exhibits and events sponsored by the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, the Luther 500 Festival, Luther Country and many other churches and organizations.</li><li>Highly popular format: while many biographies have been published in anticipation of the 500th anniversary, this is the only recent biography in the graphic novel format, completing your line-up of Luther biographies and standing out from the crowd.</li></ul>9780874862089_Plough Publishing Houselibro_electonico_d66dd62e-a37b-3743-9a1e-1426290499e2_9780874862089;9780874862089_9780874862089Andrea GrossoInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/ingram52-epub-bd2dfec9-82dd-44eb-a083-92f9c54aa1a1.epub2017-10-09T00:00:00+00:00Plough Publishing House
