Summary

The Front-Runner of the Catholic Reformation looks at the life and work of Johann von Staupitz, vicar-general of the reformed Augustian friars in Germany and spiritual mentor of Martin Luther. It sheds light on the spiritual and theological aspects of the Reformation that Staupitz passed onto Luther, and how, despite his adherence to Catholicism, Staupitz was to have a profound bearing on the course of the Reformation.
