English summary: Berndt Hamm focuses on the stimuli from late medieval theology and piety and the religious experiences which led the young Luther to create a new biblical theology and to break with the traditional church in the years between 1505 and 1520. In doing so, Hamm subjects the prevalent concept of the reformational turning point to a fundamental revision. The thematic focus is on justification and Christian freedom, faith and love, God’s distance and closeness, anger and mercy, fear and consolation, mysticism and blessed death. The author provides surprising new interpretations of Luther’s 95 Theses and his On the Freedom of a Christian . German description: Berndt Hamm widmet sich der Frage, welche Impulse der spatmittelalterlichen Theologie und Frommigkeit und welche eigenen religiosen Erfahrungen den jungen Luther in den Jahren 1505 bis 1520 dazu fuhrten, eine neue biblische Theologie zu formen und mit dem traditionellen Kirchenwesen zu brechen. Das gangige Forschungskonstrukt der ‘reformatorischen Wende’ wird dabei einer grundlegenden Revision unterzogen. Thematische Hauptaspekte bilden Rechtfertigung und christliche Freiheit, Glaube und Liebe, Ferne und Nahe Gottes, Zorn und Gnade, Angst und Trost, Mystik und seliges Sterben. Luthers 95 Thesen und seine Schrift Von der Freiheit eines Christenmenschen erfahren uberraschende Neuinterpretationen.
Berndt Hamm, Geboren 1945; Studium in Heidelberg und Tubingen; 1975 Promotion; 1981 Habilitation; seit 1984 Professor fur Neuere Kirchengeschichte an der Universitat Erlangen-Nurnberg.
