The consolation of theology in Luther's and Melanchthon's later work: Consequences for Doctrine and Society

Project: Research

Project Details

Description

For the Lutheran Reformers, Luther and Melanchthon, the aim for theology was consolation of the anxious soul. After 1528, the care of doctrine became important for both. Reading lesser-known German sources by Melanchthon, this project will revise the understanding of their internal relationship and give new insight in how the consolatory revolution in Wittenberg impacted on doctrine and society.
