It was\u00a0originally written in Italian and translated into German before coming into<br \/>\nEnglish this month. The authors clearly know the Luther story well and seems to\u00a0be aware of some of the different debates on Luther. They do have Luther giving\u00a0his defiant response at Worms on the first day he was questioning rather than\u00a0on the second after asking for a day to consider the demand to recant, but this\u00a0does not negate the good work throughout.<\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormalCxSpMiddle\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormalCxSpMiddle\">The artwork is edgy, capturing well the darkness Luther\u00a0grappled with and other situations like the peasant revolt and the Black Death. This is a great tool to help people encounter Luther afresh or to engage them\u00a0for the first time. I am glad to see this coming out just as we approach the\u00a0500<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of the Reformation.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Renegade:Martin Luther, The Graphic Novel, by Dacia Palmerino and Andrea Grosso Ciponte (Plough Publishing House, October 2017), pb., 156 pp. Ages 14+ This is an engaging and fairly detailed graphic\u00a0novel on Martin Luther covering his entire life, from birth to death.
