Probably one of the most interesting things I've read and gleaned more knowledge from "post-college" is by picking up one of my wife's old textbooks from college: "The Protestant Reformation" by Hans J. Hillerbrand. It is all based on primary source works from the time of Luther through the English reformation and, while maybe not as useful as a full historical narrative of the entire period, is intensely interesting and earthy in a way as you read the real letters being shuffled back and forth and the official documents "edicted" and declared during that era. Dr. Hillerbrand is also editor of the 4-volume Oxford Encyclopedia of the Reformation, and as a fun side-note, was a wonderful guest at our wedding many many years ago!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
