Series Statement:
Oxford studies in historical theology
Content:
Wengert argues that Melanchthon - conventionally pictured as caught in the middle between Erasmus and Luther - was, at least theologically, not Erasmian at all, but in fact anti-Erasmus. He studies issues of free will and divine and human righteousness.
Note:
Previously issued in print: 1998.
