Reforming the North offers a broad perspective on the Protestant Reformation in Scandinavia and on the implications of the reformation for Northern history.
Im Juni 2011 fand die erste Konferenz des Reformation Research Consortium (RefoRC) am Institut für Schweizerische Reformgeschichte an der Theologischen Fakultät Zürich statt. Der Titel »Mythos der Reformation« ermutigte kritische Perspektiven auf herkömmliche Vorstellungen über die Reformation des 16. Jahrhunderts. Peter Opitz bietet eine Auswahl von dort gehaltenen Vorträgen und versammelt facettenreiche Aspekte und Perspektiven zur Thematik. Dadurch gelingt es Opitz zumindest einen Mythos zu widerlegen, nämlich dass die Reformationszeit eine langweilige Periode war, in der es nicht viel mehr außer den herkömmlichen Mythen zu entdecken gäbe.

In Jews and Christians in Denmark: From the Middle Ages to Recent Times, ca. 1100–1948, Martin Schwarz Lausten investigates how the Church and society followed the European antijudaistic tradition using insults, adversities and attempted conversions during Catholic times from around 1100 and Protestant times starting around 1536. In spite of the tolerant policies of integration initiated by the government beginning in the 1800’s, anti-Semitic movements arose among priests, professors and local authorities. However, during the German occupation (1940–1945) priests and many others assisted the 7,000 Danish Jews in their escape to Sweden. Based on Jewish and Christian sources, Jewish reactions to life in Denmark are also examined.

This unique collection of excerpts from Lutheran historical documents--many translated here for the first time--presents readers with a full picture of how the Lutheran movement developed in its thought and practice. Covering not only theology but also church life, popular piety, and influential historical events, the primary documents include theological treatises, confessional statements, liturgical texts, devotional writings, hymns, letters and diaries, satirical polemics, political documents, woodcuts, and pamphlet literature. This first volume covers the chronological period from Luthers first calls for reform to the development of Lutheran Orthodoxy and Pietism during the seventeenth century. The judiciously selected and carefully translated texts as well as the contextualizing information provided in each chapters introductory essay acquaint readers with the turbulence and fervor of this revolutionary Christian movement, its struggles for survival and consolidation, and its further evolution up to the dawn of the Enlightenment.
Niels Aage Barfoeds biografiske roman fortæller historien om en Danmarks største reformister. Hans Tausen (1494-1561) er kendt for såvel sin oversættelse af Biblen til dansk som for sit utrættelige arbejde med at reformere den danske kirke efter Martin Luthers ideer. Skønt han ikke var den eneste dansker, der var med til at gennemføre reformationen, er han alligevel kendt som "den danske Luther". Niels Aage Barfoed tegner et spændende portræt af den religiøse ildsjæl og hans usædvanlige og begivenhedsrige liv. Niels Aage Barfoed (1899-1973) var en dansk præst og forfatter, der skrev en lang række biografiske romaner om historiske danskere heriblandt Poul Henningsen, Leonora Christina Ulfeldt, biskop Hans Adolf Brorson og Steen Steensen Blicher. Niels Aage Barfoed stod desuden bag flere noveller og romaner.
