Beschreibung
The sweetness of music is something that has puzzled Christian theologians for centuries. In this study, Luthers theology of music is approached from the point of view of pleasure. It examines the significance of joy, beauty and pleasure in relationship with music and Luthers theology. The notion of music as the supreme gift of God requires also a discussion about the idea of gift. Music opens up new perspectives into Luthers thinking. Luther has seldom been reckoned among aesthetic theologians. Nevertheless, Luther has a peculiar view on beauty, understanding faith as a kind of aesthetic contemplation.
