1603 1669 Bremen Cocceius Johannes Longer Moustache Professor Shaved Theology


EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait, we encounter the esteemed German theologian, Johannes Cocceius, born in Bremen in 1603 and departed in 1669. A notable figure in the Calvinist theological tradition, Cocceius' scholarly contributions significantly influenced Protestant theology during the 17th century. This image of Cocceius presents a striking contrast to other known portraits of him. His once well-groomed, neatly trimmed moustache is now absent, and his hair has grown longer, cascading over his shoulders. The change in appearance may suggest a shift in his personal circumstances or a simple reflection of the passing of time. Despite the altered appearance, the intellectual intensity and profound wisdom in Cocceius' eyes remain undiminished. He is seen here in a thoughtful pose, holding a book in one hand and resting his other hand on the table, indicating his deep engagement with theological texts. Cocceius' academic career began at the University of Helmstedt, where he studied under the renowned theologian, Andreas Hyperius. He later became a professor of theology at the University of Wittenberg, and eventually returned to his native city of Bremen, where he served as a pastor and theological advisor to the city council. His most significant work, "Lex Revelio," is a commentary on the Book of Revelation that provided a fresh perspective on the apocalyptic text, emphasizing its historical and allegorical dimensions. Cocceius' interpretations influenced later theologians, including John Calvin and John Bunyan, and continue to be studied by scholars today. This portrait of Johannes Cocceius, with its intriguing departure from his typical appearance, invites us to reflect on the complexities of his life and the enduring impact of his intellectual contributions to the field of theology.
