Reihe: Reformed Historical Theology

Stefan Lindholm examines the Christology of Jerome Zanchi (1516-90), a leading 16th century reformed scholastic theologian. The study as a whole is bound together by doctrinal topics, themes and trajectories important to the 16th century, Christological debates as well as by philosophical issues and arguments. The first part is concerned with research in reformed scholasticism and Christological method, the second part with the hypostatic union and the third part with the consequences of the union.

Dr. phil. Stefan Lindholm is an ordinand in the Lutheran Church in Sweden, editor for Theofilos at NLA University College, Norway, and has lectured at Linköping University and Johannelund Theological Seminary, Sweden.
