; 10 November 1483

– 18 February 1546) was a German professor of
theology
, priest, author, composer,
Augustinian monk
,
[3]
and a seminal figure in the
Reformation
. Luther was ordained to the
priesthood
in 1507. He came to reject several teachings and practices of the
Roman Catholic Church
; in particular, he disputed the view on
indulgences
. Luther proposed an academic discussion of the practice and efficacy of indulgences in his
Ninety-five Theses
of 1517. His refusal to renounce all of his writings at the demand of
Pope Leo X
in 1520 and the
Holy Roman Emperor Charles V
at the
Diet of Worms
in 1521 resulted in his
excommunication
by the
pope
and condemnation as an
outlaw
by the
Holy Roman Emperor
.
