Frappell, L. O. “Coleridge and the ‘Coleridgeans’ on Luther,"
Journal of Religious History Vol. 7, No. 4 (December 1973): 307-323.
Frappell briefly considers Kingsley’s views on Luther. He contends that
Kingsley certainly had a very high regard for Luther but that this regard
was tempered by the belief that Luther in his stress on the individual’s striving
for the absolute did not care sufficiently for Christianity’s social message.
Kingsley influenced by Christian Socialism had a higher regard for such individuals
as the late medieval German mystics and John Tauler of Strasbourg who combined
a desire to ally social transformation with their quest for the absolute.
