Luther from Latin America
Abstract
This paper aims to analyze the perception of Martin Luther in Latin America throughout its history. This context has not been sufficiently studied in depth and, in fact, the topic of the reformer and his theological proposal could be perceived as something totally foreign to the Latin American sphere. However, of great interest is the way in which the former German Augustinian monk has been approached, studied, attacked or understood in a world that was heir to Hispanic and counter-reformist values since the very times of its formation, first, as colonies and then as nation states with a historical heritage and a cultural background that shape how this historical character has been seen over time.Keywords
