From Friend to Foe of the Wittenberg Reformers]Johann Agricola from Eisleben, also known as Islebius, belonged to the circle of Wittenberg reformers and enjoyed the trust of Martin Luther and Philipp Melanchthon for a long time. However, he eventually became one of their fiercest opponents. Agricola saw himself as a faithful representative of Wittenberg theology. Nonetheless, due to his unconventional positions and his involvement in the Augsburg Interim of 1548, he repeatedly became embroiled in various disputes about the doctrine of the Reformation. Self-image and external image diverged widely.The contributions collected here attempt to get to the bottom of this observation by looking at Agricola's various places and

periods of activity and drawing on the writings produced in these contexts. The volume thus opens up a new perspective on Agricola that does not reduce him to merely a controversial theologian, but rather reveals the diversity of his life and work.[Publisher's text]
