Pride, Idolatry and Desire: Augustine and Luther in Dialogue with Contemporary Hamartiology

本研究旨在通过路德和奥古斯丁的建设性检索，参与当代对罪的传统教义的挑战。最近对情感奥古斯丁伤害学的批评倾向于关注教义的经验价，以及它明显不适用于现代存在的特殊性。然而，奥古斯丁的罪论深受对人类心理体验的特殊理解的制约，路德在16世纪重新诠释奥古斯丁时继续关注这一点。因此，关注这些传统中的经验和情感动态的阅读提供了与当代辩论的令人兴奋的接触点。

This research aims to engage contemporary challenges to the traditional doctrince of sin, by a constructive retrieval of Luther and Augustine. Recent critiques of affective Augustinian hamartiology have tended to focus on the experiential valence of the doctrine, and its apparent inapplicability to the particularities of modern existence. Augustine's doctrine of sin was, however, deeply conditioned by a specific understanding of human psychological experience, and Luther continued to focus as he reinterpreted Augustine in the sixteenth century. A reading that pays attention to these experiential and affective dynamics in this strand of tradition therefore offers exciting points of contact with the contemporary debate.
