Den unge Manfred Björkquist : Hur en vision av kristendomens möte med kultur och samhälle växer fram
- 2008
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis is a biographical study of Manfred Björkquist’s early life and addresses questions concerning the development of his vision of Christianity, culture and soci-ety. A comparison is also made between Björkquist’s vision and the classical typol-ogy of H. Richard Niebuhr. The investigation is motivated by the pivotal role Man-fred Björkquist (1884-1985) played in Swedish church life in the 20th century. He was born in northern Sweden to a country vicar and follower of confessional Luther-anism and Pietism. In 1902-09 Björkquist studied at the University of Uppsala with the goal of becoming a Lutheran priest and missionary. Parallell to his studies, Björkquist was active in Christian work which was characterized by Lutheran Pie-tism, openness to Anglo-Saxon revivalism and a belief in the relevance of the na-tional church. A spiritual awakening in the Christian Student Association in Uppsala in the spring of 1908 and a new church-centered Lutheran theology provided the immediate context of Björkquist’s vision. He expressed it with the catchword »The people of Sweden – a people of God through Jesus Christ» and connected it to his concept of the national church, folkkyrkan (the folk church), as a vehicle for re-christianizing the nation. This re-christianization was meant to take place through voluntary conversion of individuals to personal faith in Jesus Christ and an active cultural and social involvement of the church in the contemporary life of the nation. In accordance with the social component of his concept of the national church, Björkquist used his vision to attempt to bring about a consensus between rival social groups and contending ideologies through dialogue. By adopting the organizational methods and patterns of activities that characterized the new social movements, Björkquist at the same time strengthened the forces of change in civil society.

Att finna hela kyrkans skatt : något om den svenska högkyrlighetens inspirationskällor

Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- When often is said, that the Swedish High Church movement above all is inspired from the Anglican Oxford movement in the Church of England in the first decade of the 1900s, this study accentuates and elucidates that a prerequisite of this, is the Swedish contacts with the so called new-lutheranism in Bavaria in the late 1800s. It is proved how Swedish theologians at that time was in contact and visited e.g. Wilhelm Loehe and the faculty of theology at the University of Erlangen. The Swedish Service book 1894 and the liturgcial education of the clergy at that time was inspired of this. When a number of Swedish High Church pionieers visited England in the early 1900s this is a condition for their positive impressions and symphaty. They did not principially found "anglicanism", but a common liturgical and pastoral heritage, "the treasure of the worldwide Catholic Church", a share of their own inheritance . The mission of their lives inside the lutheran Church of Sweden was to make this clear.
