The close relationship between religion, medicine and natural
philosophy in the post-Reformation period has been documented and
explored in a body of research since the 1990s; however, the direct
and continued impact of Melanchthonian natural philosophy within
the individual Lutheran principalities of northern Europe in
general and Scandinavia in particular still has to be fully
investigated and understood. This volume provides insight into how
and why medicine and natural philosophy in a 'liberal' and
Melanchthonian form could continue to blossom in Scandinavia
despite a growing Lutheran uniformity promoted by the State.
Inspired by research emanating from the Cambridge Unit for the
History of Medicine, here a number of young scholars such as Adam
Mosley, Morten Fink-Jensen, Signe Nipper Nielsen and Martin
Kjellgren are joined with more established scholars such as Andrew
Cunningham, Jens Glebe-Moller, Terhi Kiiskinen and Ole Peter Grell
to create a volume which deals with not only the major issues but
also the leading personalities of the period.
