About Martin Luther's teaching.?

Question

Which aspect of Martin Luther's teachings do you think had the most profound impact on artistic production?

Answer 1

Nothing beats the Image of the 95 Theses, sheets of paper with sharp vigorous writing Nailed to the Door of the Catholic Church.
But I like visual - - - but as for Luther's teachings, his insistence on writing in the 'Venacular,' the common language, making the message meaningful to the masses. This was Luther's greatest legacy. The Word should be heard in All Languages - - -

An explosion of writing erupted as a result - - - and if one 'knew' the Bible, one could use a Venacular Bible as a Dictionary and Library, thus the Spread of Fiction Writing. The Bible as a Rosetta Stone (that is a University Level Class worth more than two points)...

Answer 2

Luther's greatest impact had little to do with "artistic production." His major achievement was successfully challenging the hypocrisy and greed of the Catholic church.

He was incensed that the Church would sell "indulgences"... (post mortem payment to protect deceased loved-ones from the torments of the afterlife)

Martin Luther’s impact on Christian philosophy may have had some impact on Christian art. He thought it an abomination that church elders sanctioned terror. They literally terrorized living relatives of the dead by asserting that the deceased were in torment and could only get reprieve through monetary donations to the church. Martin Luther was the first church elder with enough balls to challenge the evil, greedy scumbags in the church.

If you mean “THE ARTS” which include writing, then yes, he had impact.
The impact his theses had on writing was great.

The real impact Luther had was the reformation of the church which was due in large part to the spread of writing and literacy. That was a result of Johann Gutenberg’s invention of the printing press in 1440 . His protests in the early 1500s would have been incomprehensible to all but a few before the printing press.

There are many paintings of his famous, “Nailing the Protests.”
His impact on writing and criticism Christian philosophy was great. ( the arts)
Other than romantic paintings of the 95 theses of protest nailing, he had no specific impact on ART.
