What is Martin Luther's Theology of Beauty : A Reappraisal about?

Luther's use of philosophy -- Luther on goodness -- The early Luther on beauty -- The mature Luther on beauty -- Luther on the theology and beauty of music -- Luther on visual imaging -- Luther and nouvelle théologie -- Luther for a contemporary theology of beauty.;Many contemporary theologians seek to retrieve the concept of beauty as a way for people to encounter God. This groundbreaking book argues that while Martin Luther's view of beauty has often been ignored or underappreciated, it has much to contribute to that quest. Mark Mattes, one of today's leading Lutheran theologians, analyzes Luther's theological aesthetics and discusses its implications for music, art, and the contemplative life. Mattes shows that for Luther, the cross is the lens through which the beauty of God is refracted into the world.
