A Study on the Reformation of Religion and Education in Dürer's Art Works

Abstract

The Reformation advocated the five pillars of Christianity, Five Solas, which first emerged during the Reformation. Sola Scriptura (Only the Bible), Solus Christus (Only Christ), Sola Gratia (Only Grace), Sola Fide (Only Faith), Soli Deo Gloria (Only God’s Glory). The Reformationists Luther, Calvin and Zwingli opposed Catholic papacy through their reformism. The education reform was in The Reformation contents. The concept of modern public education began with reformism. They distinguished between truth and falsehood and said value and worthlessness. They borrowed the artistic talents of a painter like Dürer. This treatise examines the educational content of The Reformation through Durer’s work. 1
