From Priest's Whore to Pastor's Wife: Clerical Marriage and the Process of Reform in the Early German Reformation
Plummer, Marjorie Elizabeth (University of Arizona, USA)
On 13 June 1525, Martin Luther married Katharina von Bora, a former nun, in a private ceremony officiated by city preacher Johann Bugenhagen. His marriage immediately became one of the iconic episodes of the Protestant Reformation. Tackling the early stages of this divide, this book provides a fresh assessment of this clerical marriage.
