Description

Explore the powerful role of music during the first four decades of the Reformation. This scholarly work examines how hundreds of songs, written in popular styles and set to familiar tunes, spread throughout the German territories. From satires targeting the pope or Martin Luther to ballads retelling historical events, these musical works served as a primary tool for communication. This book investigates a wide variety of musical forms, including translations of psalms, musical sermons, and didactic Lieder. While Martin Luther is famous for his written works and sermons, this study argues that his songs and the propagandist ballads they inspired had a more significant impact on the German people. Part of the St Andrews Studies in Reformation History, this text provides a deep look into how music functioned as a medium for social and religious change. It is an essential resource for those studying the history of music, the Reformation, or the use of media in historical social movements.
