Arbeiten zur Kirchengeschichte first began publication in 1925 and can claim to be one of the most tradition-rich historical book series. It presents research on the history of Christian churches and dogmas through the ages but also publishes papers on related disciplines such as archeology, history of art and literary studies. One of the series leading features is its consistent striving to combine historical-methodical precision with systematic contextualization of each examined topic. In recent years the series has increasingly published studies on themes relating to the history of Christian culture and ideas, viewed within a methodically open perspective on the history of Christianity.

"In conclusion, a book like that of Franz Posset does not deserve just a review, it deserves laudation! From my point of view, it is the best and the most reliable biography of the great humanist of Pforzheim. This book will take pride of place in any reputable humanist and theological library."
Rajmund Pietkiewicz in: The Biblical Annals 7/3 (2017): 393 - 398
"Die große Stärke von Possets Buch besteht in der schieren Fülle des dargebotenen Materials. [...] Besonders hervorzuheben ist, dass Posset zahlreiche, teils rare Bildquellen erschlossen hat, die dem Buch dankenswerter Weise in zumeist guten Abbildungen beigegeben sind."

"Vor 50 Jahren hat die römisch-katholische Kirche in der Erklärung Nostra aetate des Zweiten Vatikanischen Konzils ihre Beziehung zum Judentum auf eine neue Basis gestellt und den traditionellen christlichen Antijudaismus überwunden. Franz Posset stellt in seiner auf dem neuesten Stand der Forschung gearbeiteten Biographie Johannes Reuchlin als einen Mann vor, der 500 Jahre früher diesen Weg einschlug, damals aber vom Papst gebremst wurde. Die Gründe dafür sind, wie Posset überzeugend darlegt, vielfältiger, als es auf den ersten Blick erscheint. Zwar hatte Reuchlin bei seinem Kampf gegen die Vernichtung der 'Judenbücher' Befürworter bis in die höchsten Kreise der römischen Kurie. Die antirömische

"Franz Posset makes a convincing case for viewing Reuchlin as a Catholic lay theologian, deeply influenced by the budding humanism of the period, especially its concern for understanding the sacred books of the past in their original languages. This concern led Reuchlin to master Hebrew for study of the Old Testament, to examine aspects of post-biblical Jewish literature, to find important wisdom therein, and to defend the Jews and their books against intense assault. Posset treats these aspects of Reuchlin at great length and with scrupulous care, thus creating an invaluable guide to the perspectives of this major Christian thinker on Judaism and the Jews and a significant contribution to the literature on Christian-Jewish relations over the ages."
Robert Chazan, Professor of Jewish History, New York University, USA.
"The German humanist Johannes Reuchlin is famous for his defense of Jewish literature in the sixteenth century. In recent years many fine studies have been published which concentrate on different aspects of his life and scholarly achievements. A new and all-comprising biography, however, is eagerly awaited. This gap has now been filled by Franz Posset's opus. Profoundly researched and excellently written, Posset places Reuchlin in the tradition of the medieval catholic church. This book could be a standard for many generations to come."
Hans Peterse, Lecturer in History, University of Münster, Germany.
