1517

In this thought-provoking audiobook, historian Peter Marshall examines the iconic event of Martin Luther's supposed posting of the 95 Theses in 1517, suggesting that it likely never occurred. Through a nuanced exploration of this historical "non-event," Marshall highlights its profound implications for the Protestant Reformation and its lasting impact on cultural memory. As societies prepare to commemorate the 500th anniversary, this work invites listeners to reflect on the ways the past is reshaped by contemporary narratives, fostering a deeper understanding of religious freedom and protest.
