=== Publications === In 1540 Luther expelled Schwenckfeld from Silesia. In 1541, Schwenckfeld published the ''Great Confession on the Glory of Christ''. Many considered the writing to be [[Heresy in Christianity|heretical]]. He taught that Christ had two natures, divine and human, but that he became progressively more divine. He also published a number of works about interpreting the scriptures during the 1550s, often responding to the rebuttals of the Lutheran Reformer [[Matthias Flacius|Matthias Flacius Illyricus]].<ref>Arbeiten zur Geschichte und Theologie des Luthertums, Neue Folge, Band 5 (Hannover, Lutherisches Verlagshaus: 1984).</ref> Schwenckfeld's ''Theriotropheum Silesiae'' is considered the world's oldest published local faunal list, containing a list of the animals of Silesia, including 150 bird species.<ref>{{cite journal|doi=10.1007/s10336-007-0160-2|title=The development of ornithology in central Europe|year=2007|last1=Haffer|first1=J.|s2cid=38874099|journal=Journal of Ornithology|volume=148|pages=125β153}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|author=Andrejew, Adolf| title=[Kaspar Schwenckfeldt - a Silesian physician, Renaissance student of nature and bibliophile| pages=89β104| journal=Kwartalnik Historii Nauki I Techniki R.|volume=40| year=1995| issue=5| pmid=11624921|url=http://bazhum.muzhp.pl/media/files/Kwartalnik_Historii_Nauki_i_Techniki/Kwartalnik_Historii_Nauki_i_Techniki-r1995-t40-n3/Kwartalnik_Historii_Nauki_i_Techniki-r1995-t40-n3-s89-104/Kwartalnik_Historii_Nauki_i_Techniki-r1995-t40-n3-s89-104.pdf }}</ref>
