摘要

这篇文章考察了路德教会牧师、神学家和医生对约翰·韦耶（john Weyer）在1563年提出的论点的回应。韦耶认为，那些承认与魔鬼有契约的妇女患有忧郁，因此不必为她们的行为负责。韦耶的忧郁概念是医学上的，但在路德教会牧师和神学家中，出现了一种来自宗教的精神形式的忧郁概念。本文阐明了路德教中医学忧郁和精神忧郁的概念之间的区别，并回顾了它们在关于Weyer论点的辩论中各自扮演的角色。

Spiritual and Medical Melancholy in Lutheran Responses to Johann Weyer's Criticism of the Witch Trials.

This article examines responses from Lutheran pastors, theologians, and physicians to the arguments given by Johann Weyer in 1563 that those women who confessed to a pact with the devil suffered from melancholy and were thus not responsible for their acts. Weyer's conception of melancholy was a medical one, yet among Lutheran pastors and theologians the concept of a spiritual form of melancholy emerged that came from religious sources. The article clarifies the difference between the concepts of medical and spiritual melancholy within Lutheranism and reviews the respective roles they played in the debates over Weyer's arguments.

期刊介绍： Since its inception in 1940, the Journal of the History of Ideas has served as a medium for the publication of research in intellectual history that is of common interest to scholars and students in a wide range of fields. It is committed to encouraging diversity in regional coverage, chronological range, and methodological approaches. JHI defines intellectual history expansively and ecumenically, including the histories of philosophy, of literature and the arts, of the natural and social sciences, of religion, and of political thought. It also encourages scholarship at the intersections of cultural and intellectual history — for example, the history of the book and of visual culture.
