Key Notes
Luther succeeds where earlier critics failed because Holy Roman Empire princes use his critique as a pretext for autonomy and financial divorce from Rome.
Wycliffe and Hus are framed as reformers who challenge priestly monopoly and anticipate Luther's Protestant Reformation.
Jiang argues that Martin Luther's shift from ritual obedience to justification by faith created a new religious anxiety because believers can never be certain they truly love God.
