Synopsis

This book delves into the life and works of a pioneering Lutheran divine in the 16th century. Born in 1520, Faber exerted immense influence as a leader of the Lutheran movement. He made invaluable contributions to scholarship as a theologian and author, particularly through his Thesaurus Eruditionis Scholasticae, an ambitious undertaking that laid the groundwork for the development of bibliographies and scholarly research as we know it. Faber's commitment to education and the dissemination of knowledge solidified his legacy as a significant figure in the history of religious thought and the broader intellectual landscape of his time.
