Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Augsburg Confession: Translated From the Latin, in 1536 Seventy-five years before the publication of King James´ or the Authorized English Version of the Bible, the translation of the Augsburg Confession, here reprinted, was prepared by Richard Taverner, then chief secretary to Henry the Eighth´s minister, Thomas Crumwell. It is a memorial of those negotiations with the Lutheran theologians at Wittenberg which not only for a time promised the reformation of the English Church upon a thoroughly Lutheran basis, but when this was not accomplished, made the Augsburg Confession the great source whence successive English ecclesiastical formularies derived much of their material. Nor was the translation of Taverner made only for theologians, but as the "Epistle of the Translator" clearly shows, it was designed to be scattered broadcast throughout the kingdom, "that the people, for whose sakes the book was commanded to be translated may the more greedily devour the same." The ravages of time, and above all, the fires of persecution, have made copies of this book exceedingly rare. During the reign of Mary, as one of the writings of Luther, Melanchthon, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
