HUTTER, LEONHARD German Lutheran theologian, born at Nellingen, near Ulm, began to lecture at Jena in 1594, and in 1J96 became professor of theology at Witten berg, where he died on Oct. 23, 1616. Hutter was a champion of Lutheran orthodoxy, as set down in the confessions and em bodied in his own Compendium locorum theologicorum (1610; reprinted 1863). He was called "Luther redonatus." In reply to Rudolf Hospinian's Concordia discors (1607), he wrote Concordia concors (1614), defending the formula of Con cord, which he regarded as inspired. His Irenicum vere christi anum is directed against David Pareus (1548-1622), of Heidel berg, who had pleaded for a reconciliation of Lutheranism and Calvinism ; his Calvinista aulopoliticus was written against the "damnable Calvinism" which was becoming prevalent in Hol stein and Brandenburg. Another work, based on the formula of Concord, was entitled Loci communes tjieologici. Karl von Hase used his name as the symbol of orthodoxy in his Hutterus redivivus (1827).
