Summary

English summary: Georg Rorer (1492-1557) was fascinated by Martin Luther and his theology to such a degree that, starting in 1522, he began to assemble a unique collection of sermon and lecture notes as well as table talks and letters by the Wittenberg reformer and his colleagues, among them Philipp Melanchthon and Johannes Bugenhagen. Only with the critical Weimar Luther Edition was this treasure made generally accessible. But the exclusive focus on Luther obscured the fact that Rorer was more than a mere collector. As an irreplaceable member of the Wittenberg group of reformers he for example recorded the minutes of the Bible revision or supervised the printing of the Wittenberg Bible and other writings immediately at the printers'. This volume documents the proceedings of a conference (held in 2010) dedicated to this collector and his collection. With contributions by Konrad Amann, Alexander Bartmuss, Joachim Bauer, Anneliese Bieber-Wallmann, Berndt Hamm, Johannes Hund, Volker Leppin, Stefan Michel, Joachim Ott, Johannes Schilling, Uwe Schirmer, Christian Speer, Sabine Werfers and Hellmut Zschoch. German description: Georg Rorer (1492-1557) war von Martin Luther und seiner Theologie so sehr fasziniert, dass er seit 1522 eine in ihrer Art einmalige Sammlung von Predigt- und Vorlesungsmitschriften sowie Tischreden und Briefen des Wittenberger Reformators und seiner Kollegen wie Philipp Melanchthon oder Johannes Bugenhagen anlegte. Erst durch die kritische Weimarer Luther-Ausgabe konnte dieser Schatz gehoben werden. Die einseitige Fokussierung auf Luther verdeckte aber, dass Rorer noch mehr als nur ein Sammler war. Er protokollierte z.B. als unersetzliches Mitglied der Wittenberger Reformatorengruppe die Ergebnisse der Bibelrevision oder uberwachte den Druck der Wittenberger Bibel sowie weiterer Schriften direkt in den Druckereien. Der Band dokumentiert die Ergebnisse einer Tagung aus dem Jahr 2010, die den Sammler und seine Sammlung in den Mittelpunkt stellte.Mit Beitragen von Konrad Amann, Alexander Bartmuss, Joachim Bauer, Anneliese Bieber-Wallmann, Berndt Hamm, Johannes Hund, Volker Leppin, Stefan Michel, Joachim Ott, Johannes Schilling, Uwe Schirmer, Christian Speer, Sabine Werfers und Hellmut Zschoch.
