The project applied for aims in the first step at producing a critical-genetic edition of the Unterricht der Visitatoren on the basis of pre-existing prints from the 16th century and newly accessible primary sources in the Main Thuringian State Archive in Weimar and in other archives and libraries. They make it possible for the first time to reconstruct the emergence of this central document of the Wittenberg Reformation in detail. The widely debated question of authorship of the Unterricht der Visitatoren can now be clearly answered: neither Philipp Melanchthon nor Martin Luther was the sole creator of the text. Rather, it must be presumed that it was a collective work which for example Johannes Bugenhagen or Hieronymus Schurff also contributed to and that their practical experiences in the visitations between 1525 and 1527 influenced the text. In order to shed more light upon the historical origins, letters from correspondences of electoral advisors from the summer and autumn of 1527 will be selected for publication in the planned edition. The newly discovered primary sources will be made accessible in digital form (scans) by the Gotha Research Library at the site of the Digital Library. The second step of the projects builds on the first and aims at elucidating the historical background, the significance and the historical reception of this normative document of the 16th century circle of Wittenberg theologians in the form of an introductory commentary. It will not be simply assumed that Luthers theology or Melanchthons integrative intentions permeate this manual for the introduction of the Reformation, but rather that the Wittenberg theologians consciously attempted in close cooperation with legal scholars and court advisors to establish a consensus which they tried to hold to in the following years. Such a consensus would, however, not have been conceivable without the territorial prince assuming episcopal functions.

该项目申请的第一步目标是在现有的16世纪印刷品和魏玛图林根国家档案馆和其他档案馆和图书馆新获得的原始资料的基础上，制作《游客手册》的关键遗传版本。它们使我们有可能第一次详细地重建维滕贝格宗教改革这一核心文献的出现。关于《Unterricht der Visitatoren》作者身份的广泛争论现在可以得到明确的回答：菲利普·梅兰希通和马丁·路德都不是这部作品的唯一创作者。相反，它必须假定，这是一个集体的工作，例如约翰内斯Bugenalgus或HierlusSchurff也作出了贡献，他们的实际经验之间的visitations 1525年和1527年影响了文本。为了更清楚地了解历史渊源，1527年夏季和秋季选举顾问的信件将被选中在计划的版本中出版。新发现的原始资料将由哥达研究图书馆在数字图书馆网站上以数字形式（扫描）提供。项目的第二步以第一步为基础，旨在以介绍性评论的形式阐明这份世纪维滕贝格神学家界规范性文件的历史背景、意义和历史接受情况。我们不能简单地认为路德的神学或梅兰希通的整合意图渗透到这本介绍宗教改革的手册中，而是维滕贝格的神学家有意识地试图与法律的学者和法庭顾问密切合作，以建立一个共识，他们试图在随后的几年里坚持下去。然而，如果没有领土君主承担主教职能，这种共识是不可想象的。
