Description

L’humanisme polyglotte de la première partie duXVIe siècle constitue le milieu de Martin Luther et les conditions formatrices de sa théologie biblique. Ce contexte est illustré de manière succincte par un document connu comme «la page du rectorat de Crotus Rubeanus», qui date du mois de mai 1521. Ce document commémore l’achèvement du terme de Crotus en tant que recteur de l’université d’Erfurt. Dix-sept humanistes polyglottes s’y trouvent représentés, dont Luther.
