Summary

English summary: [Paul Eber (1511-1569). Humanist and Theologian. Representative of the Second Generation of the Wittenberg Reformation]After Melanchthon's death Paul Eber (1511-1569) advanced to become the dominating figure of Wittenberg theology and central advisor for numerous Lutheran towns and territories in the German Empire and other parts of Europe. In spite of this immense influence the marginal research so far dedicated to his life and work still views him merely as a figure in the shadows of Luther and Melanchthon. This volume sets out from Eber's comprehensive written legacy in the Gotha Research Library to survey widely unexplored terrain. The essays sharpen the profile of this quiet shaper of the Reformation, shedding new light on his manifold role as university professor, pastor and advisor on church affairs, his scholarly and poetic oeuvre, his mediating position in the theological controversies of his time and his reception in word and images. German description: Paul Eber (1511-1569) war nach Melanchthons Tod die zentrale Gestalt der Wittenberger Theologie und wirkte reichs- und europaweit als Ratgeber fur zahlreiche lutherische Stadte und Territorien. Dieser umfassenden Bedeutung wird die bisher recht schmale Forschung zu seinem Leben und Werk nicht gerecht, die ihn immer noch im Schatten Luthers und Melanchthons sieht. Der vorliegende Band erschliesst daher weitgehend Neuland: Ausgehend von Ebers umfangreichen Nachlass in der Forschungsbibliothek Gotha scharfen die Beitrage das Profil dieses stillen Akteurs. Neu beleuchtet werden sein facettenreiches akademisches, geistliches und kirchenpolitisches Wirken, sein wissenschaftliches und dichterisches Schaffen, seine vermittelnde Haltung in den theologischen Kontroversen seiner Zeit sowie seine zeitgenossische Rezeption in Wort und Bild.
