The cross-national analyses of Europe's patterns of religious and moral orientations presented in this book are all based on the 1990 European Values Study survey data and some use both 1981 and 1990 data. Use is also made of more recent data gathered in 1995/1997 within the framework of the World Values Study, directed by Ron Inglehart, as well as data from a recent pilot survey in Japan. The contributions in this book are not written within a common theoretical framework, but from different theoretical perspectives and scientific backgrounds and interests. However, a majority of the chapters focus on the Catholic and Protestant divide in Europe. All in all, the contributions in this book show (parts) of the religious and moral culture in contemporary secularizing societies.

One of the most important medieval writers studied in historical and literary context. Julian of Norwich, the fourteenth/early fifteenth-century anchoress and mystic, is one of the most important and best-known figures of the Middle Ages. Her Revelations, intense visions of the divine, have been widely studied and read; the first known writings of an English woman, their influence extends over theology and literature. However, many aspects of both her life and thought remain enigmatic. This exciting new collection offers a comprehensive, accessible coverage of the key aspects of debate surrounding Julian. It places the author within a wide range of contemporary literary, social, historical and religious contexts, and also provides a wealth of new insightsinto manuscript traditions, perspectives on her writing and ways of interpreting it, building on the work of many of the most active and influential researchers within Julian studies, and including the fruits of the most recent,ground-breaking findings. It will therefore be a vital companion for all of Julian's readers in the twenty-first century. Dr Liz Herbert McAvoy is Senior Lecturer in Gender in English and Medieval Studies at Swansea University. Contributors: Denise M.

Das Buch bietet eine kritische Literaturgeschichte der Lutherbilder von der Reformationszeit bis zur Gegenwart. Fünf Jahrhunderte lang haben sich viele Autoren über das welthistorische Individuum Martin Luther geäußert und es literarisch darzustellen versucht, von Hans Sachs über Herder, Goethe und Kleist bis hin zu Thomas Mann, Dieter Forte und Rolf Hochhuth. Luther wurde mit den verschiedensten literarischen Mitteln und Effekten inszeniert, etwa als die wittenbergische Nachtigall , der eislebische christliche Ritter , die mächtige Eiche deutschen Stammes , der stiernackige Gottesbarbar . Die Literatur hat sich an der Fabrikation eines Luther-Mythos beteiligt, der den Reformator zu einem Propheten der Deutschen erhob, und ebenso an der Destruktion dieses Mythos.
