Richard C. Kessler Reformation Collection--Pitts Theology Library

This volume consists of translations from J. Cochaeus' Latin work "Septiceps Lutherus. It is cast in dialogue form and discusses eight topics of religion, showing how Luther had departed from Catholic truth in these areas. The title page woodcut was a classic piece of Catholic propaganda, portraying Luther not only as a Doctor and Churchman, but as a Turk, a wild enthusiast (Schwarmer) and "Barrabas."

This volume was formerly in the Beck Lutherana collection, #721 and the W.H. Stifel collection, #365/617. There are manuscript marginalia in this text.
