The ungarnished brick walls lack intrigue or grandeur, the doorway is simply a means of entrance rather than a spectacle, yet over 55,000 visitors are drawn to the location every year (YouTube). The sanctuary inside is just as plain, aside from fourteen imposing murals created by the chapel’s namesake, Mark Rothko. They adorn bare walls, constantly shifting appearance with the light cast from the chapel’s skylight (Dowell). They seem to be the only lively aspects of an otherwise static place.…

    Through his Ten Colloquies, Desiderius Erasmus began to develop a way of thinking that Protestant reformers such as Martin Luther, Huldrych Zwingli, and John Calvin, would eventually mimic and adapt. Erasmus lived and wrote in a period of change, causing his writings to be accepted and built on. Arguably, the reformer who benefited the most from Erasmus’s writings is Martin Luther, the founder of Lutheranism.
