Luthersk Ugeskrift ("Lutheran Weekly") was an ecclesiastical periodical issued from 1877 to 1893.

History and profile

Luthersk Ugeskrift was established in 1877[1] by Wilhelm Bugge and Johan Christian Heuch, who both later served as bishops. The headquarters was in Kristiania (Oslo).[1] It was marked by "high church" views and purported skepticism towards lay preaching and elected congregational councils. In 1881 Michael Johan Færden[2] replaced Bugge as co-editor; Heuch withdrew in 1889. The periodical went defunct in 1893.[3]
