Johann Tetzel und der Ablass
Johann Tetzel gehört zu den bekanntesten Figuren des Reformationszeitalters. In der frühen Neuzeit zur Gegenfigur Martin Luthers stilisiert, ist seine historische Gestalt in der populären Wahrnehmung unter zahlreichen Legenden verschüttet. Zwar hat die Forschung seit Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts ein differenziertes Bild seines Lebens und seiner kirchlichen Wirksamkeit gezeichnet, doch wurde dies über einen kleinen Kreis von Spezialisten hinaus kaum bekannt. Die Reformationsdekade bot den Rahmen, sich erneut mit Tetzels Person, aber auch den Ablasskampagnen der Jahre um 1500 zu beschäftigen, als deren prominentester Vertreter er gilt. Stadt und Kirchgemeinde Jüterbog haben diesem Vorhaben...

Luther as Heretic
The publication of Martin Luther’s Ninety-Five Theses in 1517 immediately elicited responses from dozens of Roman Catholics in Germany and beyond. While Luther’s works and those of his leading supporters have been available in English translation for many years, those of most of his Catholic opponents have not. In order to address this imbalance, win a fairer hearing for the Catholic opposition, and make it possible for students to understand both sides of the sixteenth-century religious debates, translators have drawn on the rich resources of the Kessler Reformation Collection at the Pitts Theology Library to present here introductions to and translations of ten Catholic pamphlets. The volume begins with an essay sketching the larger background for these publications. The editors’ hope is that this book will prove useful for teaching and research and will foster a deeper understanding of the sixteenth-century theological discussions by allowing today’s readers to hear voices that have been mostly silent in the English-speaking world for centuries.

A Very Brief History of Eternity
From the author of Waiting for Snow in Havana, a brilliant cultural history of the idea of eternity What is eternity? Is it anything other than a purely abstract concept, totally unrelated to our lives? A mere hope? A frightfully uncertain horizon? Or is it a certainty, shared by priest and scientist alike, and an essential element in all human relations? In A Very Brief History of Eternity, Carlos Eire, the historian and National Book Award–winning author of Waiting for Snow in Havana, has written a brilliant history of eternity in Western culture. Tracing the idea from ancient times to the present, Eire examines the rise and fall of five different conceptions of eternity, exploring how they developed and how they have helped shape individual and collective self-understanding. A book about lived beliefs and their relationship to social and political realities, A Very Brief History of Eternity is also about unbelief, and the tangled and often rancorous relation between faith and reason. Its subject is the largest subject of all, one that has taxed minds great and small for centuries, and will forever be of human interest, intellectually, spiritually, and viscerally.
