| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research is to conduct a fundamental study on the Danish Reformation, from the political point of view. Specifically there are three different phases for the process; (I) the spread of Luther's teaching (1517-33),(2) the Count's War (1534-36), (3) the promulgation of the.
