Weimar edition of Martin Luther's works

Various books of the Weimarer Ausgabe

The Weimar edition of Luther's works, also known as the Weimarer Ausgabe (WA), is a critical complete edition of all writings of Martin Luther and his verbal statements, in Latin and German. The official title of this edition is D. Martin Luthers Werke: kritische Gesammtausgabe. Also included are Luther's Table Talk (Tischreden), Letters (Briefe), and Bible Translation (Die deutsche Bibel). The three subseries (Tischreden, Die deutsche Bibel, and Briefwechsel) are numbered separately.

The publisher was Hermann Böhlau of Weimar, and Gothic rather than Roman type was used, even in the later volumes. The imprint varies; later volumes were published by Hermann Böhlaus Nachfolger. Over the 120 years many editors have collaborated to prepare the contents, which have not been published in exact chronological order. The title on the spine of the volumes is Luthers Werke.
