The Augsburg Confession, also known as the Augustan Confession or the Augustana from its Latin name, Confessio Augustana, is the primary confession of faith of the Lutheran Church and one of the most important documents of the Protestant Reformation. The Augsburg Confession was written in both German and Latin and was presented by a number of German rulers and free-cities at the Diet of Augsburg on 25 June 1530. The Holy Roman Emperor Charles V had called on the Princes and Free Territories in Germany to explain their religious convictions in an attempt to restore religious and political unity in the Holy Roman Empire and rally support against the Ottoman invasion in the 16th century Siege of Vienna. It is the fourth document contained in the Lutheran Book of Concord.

Philip Melanchthon (born Philip Schwartzerd) (1497-1560) was a German professor and theologian, a key leader of the Lutheran Reformation, and a friend and associate of Martin Luther. In the beginning of 1521 in his Didymi Faventini Versus Thomam Placentinum pro M. Luthero Oratio, he defended Luther by proving that Luther rejected only papal and ecclesiastical practises which were at variance with Scripture, but not true philosophy and true Christianity. The appearance of Melanchthon's Loci Communes Rerum Theologicarum seu Hypotyposes Theologicae (1521) was of great importance for the confirmation and expansion of the reformatory ideas. His most important theological work of this period was the Commentarii in Epistolam Pauli ad Romanos (1532). In ethics Melanchthon preserved and renewed the tradition of ancient morality and represented the Evangelical conception of life. His books bearing directly on morals were chiefly drawn from the classics, and were influenced not so much by Aristotle as by Cicero. His principal works in this line were Prolegomena to Cicero's De Officiis (1525); Enarrationes Librorum Ethicorum Aristotelis (1529); Epitome Philosophiae Moralis (1538); and Ethicae Doctrinae Elementa (1550).

Americas

This work has special significance in the history of Protestant theology in that it was the first work written by a Protestant theologian on doctrinal theology. Hill's work seeks to bring Melanchthon out into the open where he may be seen as a constructive thinker, scholar, and systematizer of a theological worldview of his own.
