Recenze Johann Major (1564-1654)

Johann Major (1564-1654) was pastor, professor of theology and superintendent in Jena. In eventful and painful times that saw the consolidation of Lutheran theology after the Reformation, the Thirty Year's War and several plague years, he exerted great influence for the benefit of the theological faculty, the entire university and the city of Jena as a whole. The volume presents the personality of Johann Major in its different aspects: his biography, his academic and political position, his church position and his theology. The interdisciplinary contributions provide extraordinarily varied and exemplary insights into the church history, the history of art and the secular history of the Lutheran Orthodoxy and of the Baroque. schovat popis
