Description

This is a reprint of Hans Lassen Martensen's classic work "Christian Dogmatics". Hans Lassen Martensen (August 19, 1808 - February 3, 1884) was a Danish bishop and academic.At Copenhagen he was lektor in theology in 1838, professor extra-ordinarius in 1840, court preacher also in 1845, and professor ordinarius in 1850. Once he was offered to a bishopric from Swedish Church but declined. In 1854 however he gave up his educational career and was made bishop of Zealand, the Danish Primate. In his studies he had come under the influence of Schleiermacher, Hegel and Franz von Baader; but he was a man of independent mind, and developed a peculiar speculative theology which showed a disposition towards mysticism and theosophy.His contributions to theological literature included treatises on Christian ethics and dogmatics, on moral philosophy, on baptism, and a sketch of the life of Jakob Boehme, who exercised so marked an influence on the mind of the great English theologian of the 18th century, William Law. Martensen was a distinguished preacher, and his works were translated into various languages. The "official" eulogy he pronounced upon Bishop Jacob Peter Mynster (1775-1854) in 1854, in which he affirmed that the deceased man was one of the authentic truth-witnesses of Christianity to have appeared in the world since apostolic times, brought down upon his head the invectives of the philosopher S�ren Kierkegaard.Martensen died on February 3, 1884 in Copenhagen, Denmark.The Icelandic theologian Magn�s Eir�ksson (1806-1881), who lived from 1831 until his death in Copenhagen, was very critical of Martensen's speculative theology, which he violently attacked in various publications from 1844 to 1850.
