LANGE, JOHANN PETER (1802-1884)

This article appears in Volume V16, Page 173 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KRO-LAP
LANGE, JOHANN PETER (1802-1884) , German
Protestant
  theologian, was of
peasant
  origin and was born at Sonneborn near Elberfeld on the loth of
April
  1802. He studied theology at
Bonn
  (from 1822) under K. I. Nitzsch and G. C. F. Lucke, held several pastorates, and eventually (1854) settled at
Bonn
  as professor of theology in succession to Isaac A. Dorner, becoming also in 186o counsellor to the consistory. He died on the 9th of July 1884. Lange has been called the poetical theologian par excellence: " It has been said of him that his thoughts succeed each other in such rapid and agitated waves that all calm reflection and all rational distinction become, in a manner, drowned " (F. Lichtenberger). As a dogmatic writer he belonged to the school of
Schleiermacher
 . His Christliche Dognzatik (3 vols., 18491852, new edition, 187o) " contains many fruitful and suggestive thoughts, which, however, are hidden under such a
mass
  of bold figures and strange fancies, and suffer so much from want of clearness of presentation, that they did not produce any lasting effect " (Otto Pileiderer).
His other works include Das Leben Jesu (3 vols., 18441847) Das apostolische Zeitalter (2 vols., 1853-1854), Grundriss der theologischen Fnsyklopadie (1877), Grundriss der christlichen Ethik (1878), and Grundriss der Bibelkunde (1881). In 1857 he undertook with other scholars a Theologisch-homiletisches Bibelwerk, to which he contributed commentaries on the first four hooks of the
Pentateuch
 , Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi,
Matthew
 , Mark,
Revelation
 . The Bibelwerk has been translated, enlarged and revised under the general editorship of Dr Philip Schaff.
