Luther's interpretation of communicatio idiomatum in a new key
Into the debates about Christ's two natures, divine and human, and how they relate, Martin Luther threw his extended interpretation of the communicatio idiomatum , the communication of the person Christ's attributes. Luther's Christology is incarnational and it is fundamental to him that God can and will be known only as a human being ( homo / Mensch ), yet Christ's real presence is presented three dimensionally and in bodily intersectionality. L…
A Lutheran Interpretation of Communicatio Idiomatum: A Response to Richard Cross
This response to Richard Cross offers a different interpretation of Luther's employment of the communicatio idiomatum. Whereas Cross wants to place Luther's understanding of the communicatio idiomatum within a strictly philosophical framework of abstractions in order to make it fit a scholastic understanding, Luther firmly objects to such a m odus operandi. Luther clearly differentiates between philosophy and theology, finding the former insuffic…
Losing my religion: Luther, and the so‐called new perspective on Paul vis‐à‐vis feminist interpretations of Paul
This article is based on a paper given on August 16 at the seminar “Losing my Religion” held in connection with the 14th International Congress for Luther Research: Word and World. It offers a heuristic analysis of different attacks on the reformer Martin Luther and Lutheran theology, both internally and externally, with a focus on the generalizing critique of what is at times labeled “the traditional (Protestant) confrontation perspective” by th…

Creation and anthropology: N.F.S. Grundtvig as humanist and feminist
This article focuses on Scandinavian creation theology by way of the anthropology of the Happy Dane, the theologian, author, hymn writer, poet, and pastor Nicolai Frederik Severin Grundtvig (1783–1872). After having given two examples of Grundtvig's and Grundtvigians’ encounter with USA in the past, it is demonstrated how the Lutheran Grundtvig, based on his positive and organic creation theology, fought ideas of creational hierarchies, whether s…
Contradictions, Contextuality, and Conceptuality: Why Is It that Luther Is Not a Feminist
It is the aim of this article to constructively discuss some of the feminist critique that has been raised against the sixteenth century reformer, Martin Luther, and concomitantly to demonstrate the complexity, and primarily liberal aspects, of his view of women. At its outset, the article points to the fact that there are many different types of feminism, the biggest difference existing between constructivist and essentialist feminisms. Having p…
Køn, krop og ånd i middelalderen
Very often, the medieval view on "gender" and "body" is depicted either unequivocally negative or just equivocal. According to this simplistic picture, a number of medieval men and women have been portrayed as alternately extremely misogynist and extremely submissive and self-suppressing. With the examples of Bernard of Clairvaux, Beatrice of Nazareth, Mechtild of Hackeborn, and Gertrud of Helfta, this article tries to differentiate more subtly t…
