What it is
Lutheran theologians send the patriarch a Greek Augsburg Confession; he replies with three long letters accepting some points and rejecting justification by faith alone.
Why it lasted
The first sustained encounter between Orthodoxy and the Reformation, and the moment each discovered how little the other's categories fitted.
Where to read it
Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.
These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
