About this episode
A controversial figure during his lifetime, Martin Luther set in motion a revolution that split Christianity in the West and left an indelible mark on the world today. In this edition of Not Just the Tudors , first released in July 2021, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb talks to renowned Luther biographer Professor Lyndal Roper to explore the man behind the carefully crafted image - misogynistic, anti-Semitic, occasionally self-doubting, religiously devout yet with a crude, scatological sense of humour. This episode was produced by Rob Weinberg. **WARNING: This episode contains an example of strong language Enjoy unlimited access to award-winning original documentaries that are released weekly and AD-FREE podcasts.
