  • Begleitprogramm Coburg Begleitprogramm Coburg Grußwort
    VERANSTALTER PARTNER BEGLEITPROGRAMM COBURG BEGLEITPROGRAMM COBURG Grußwort Liebe Besucherinnen und Besucher der Bayerischen Landesausstellung, liebe Bürgerinnen und Bürger, „Es ist ein überaus reizender und für Studien geeigneter Ort.“ Diese Worte stammen von Martin Luther aus seiner Zeit in unserer Stadt. Fast sechs Monate verbrachte er auf der Veste und hat uns mit seinen geistigen Hinterlassenschaften in Form von Briefen, Schrift­ stücken und Übersetzungen, die er während seines Aufenthalts 1530 verfasste, einen reichen Schatz hinterlassen. Zugegebenerweise war Luthers Aufenthalt in Coburg nicht ganz freiwillig. 1530 stand er unter Reichsacht und befand sich damit in Lebensgefahr. Johann der Beständige, Kurfürst von Sachsen, war ein erklärter Anhänger Luthers und bot ihm in seiner südlichsten Burg – der Coburger Veste – Schutz und Unterkunft. Umgeben von den sicheren Mauern verfolgte Luther die Geschehnisse während des Augsburger Reichstags, schrieb Briefe, Manifeste und Denkschriften und arbeitete an seiner Bibelüber­ setzung. Die Zeit in Coburg gilt heute als eine der produktivsten und vor allem am besten dokumentierten Schaffensperioden Luthers. Sehr zur Freude der Gläubigen nahm Luther aktiv am Kirchen­ leben in unserer Stadt teil. Er predigte, beispielsweise während der Osterfeiertage, auch in der Morizkirche. Diese beiden Tatsachen machen die Bayerische Landesausstel­ lung in diesem Jahr auch so einzigartig, denn sie findet sowohl auf der Veste, einer der am besten erhaltenen deutschen Burganlagen, wie auch in der frisch sanierten Morizkirche statt. So werden die Orte, die untrennbar mit den Geschehnissen der Reformation verbunden sind, neu in den Fokus gerückt. Neben dem Reformator widmet sich die Bayerische Landesaus­ stellung der Zeit rund um 1500. Dies war in Deutschland und vor allem in Bayern eine Zeit großer Veränderungen und eine Zeit, in der sich viel bewegt hat.

Sie verdankt ihre Prominenz vor allem den hier geführten Tischgesprächen. 1655 wurde die Stube erstmals als «museum lutheri» bezeichnet.

A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin May 2011 ABSTRACT ―POOR MAGGOT SACK THAT I AM‖: THE HUMAN BODY IN THE THEOLOGY OF MARTIN LUTHER The Rev. Charles L. Cortright, B.A., M.Div. Marquette University, 2011 This dissertation represents research into the writings of Martin Luther [1483- 1546] reflecting his understanding of the human body in his theology. Chapter one reviews the history of the body in the theology of the western Christian church, 300- 1500. Chapters two through five examine Luther‘s thinking about various ―body topics,‖ such as the body as the good creation of God; sexuality and procreation; and the body in illness, death, and resurrection. Chapter six presents conclusions. Luther‘s thinking is examined on the basis of consultation of the Weimarer Ausgabe and the ―American Edition‖ of Luther‘s works.
