Readings in the History of Christian Theology, Volume 2: From the Reformation to the Present

In this second volume of “Readings in the History of Christian Theology,” William C. Placher begins with a decisive transition, the Reformation of the sixteenth century, and opens with an excerpt from Martin Luther’s “The Freedom of a Christian.” From the sixteenth century into the twentieth, he presents significant selections from works of the principal Protestant and Catholic thinkers, including present-day writers such as Gustavo Gutierrez and Rosemary Radford Ruether.
