马丁．路德与视觉艺术及基督教中国化

视觉艺术（visual arts）在马丁．路德（Martin Luther, 1483-1546）的神学阐释及实践中是不可忽略的。在1522年至1545年间，路德针对宗教改革期间的圣像破坏运动，提出了他的神学阐释来表明对视觉艺术的思考和理解；从1519年至1544年，路德参与过的视觉艺术作品直观而具体地反应了路德的视觉艺术理念，从中也可以看到他的态度和立场。本文根据路德对视觉艺术的理论和参与，来分析并解释其历史背景、神学依据并附带一些评论，最后关联路德的视觉艺术与基督教中国化这两个因素，从基督教视觉艺术的题材和形式两方面进行探讨。

Martin Luther (1483-1546) never uses the term ＂visual arts＂, which, remains indispensable for his theological articulation and practice. Since 1522, the Iconoclsam under the Spiritualists had caused social turbulence in Wittenberg and the other places in Europe. Luther set forth his view on visual arts defending against that radical deed. Through the Biblical interpretations and theological treatises, Luther had made the social situation stable successfully. In Luther's discussion from 1522 to 1545, we find his dialectical, Biblical and theological attitude and position on visual arts. For Luther, visual arts could be used in church life as far as they were regarded as a way of understanding belief, rather than al. According to Luther's view on visual arts, this paper displays the analysis of his historical backdrop, theological foundation and some assessment, as well as applies Luther's on visual arts into the modern context in China. In doing so, it demonstrates that Martin Luther's idea of visual arts can be utilized for the exploration of Christian Sinicization today.
