Mark Edwards's Homepage
Formerly Associate Dean for
Academic Administration, Professor Mark Edwards is now Senior Advisor to the
Dean at Harvard Divinity School.
He has written four books and numerous articles on
Martin Luther and the German Reformation. The most recent book, entitled Printing,
Propaganda, and Martin Luther (University of California Press, 1994;
reprint, Fortress Press, 2005), deals with the West's first “mass media campaign”
and Luther's pivotal role as both subject and object in the struggle for the
hearts and minds of sixteenth-century Christians. Edwards has taught
introductory courses in computer science at Wellesley
College and Purdue University,
and has developed three commercial software programs, including For Comment,
a pioneer “groupware” product that was designated one of the best products of
1987 by PC Magazine.
