This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discovered, edited and compiled by Martin Luther, and presented to the reader in this modern English translation, The Theologia Germanica is a classic religious treatise dating to the early Renaissance. Originally, The Theologia Germanica was composed during the bitter conflict between the Pope and the Holy Roman Emperor in the 14th century. The acrimony led to the forbidding of Catholic rites on the part of priests; as a result, some discontented clerics authored manuscripts with holy contemplation and ideas. Such writings were illicit, and the Theologia Germanica did not surface for more than a century. Martin Luther, already a major figure in the ensuing reformation, managed to recover, edit and publish publicly a large part of the Theologia Germanica. Some of the text has been permanently lost, however Luther's efforts at recovering the fragments led a mostly complete version to appear in 1518. The contents discuss the importance of spiritual living, following and imitating the life of Christ, and thereby attaining perfection and sublime nearness to God. Ultimately God's will can replace human will, so long as selfishness is banished from the soul. For his part, Martin Luther found the text praiseworthy and pure, and commended it. Although such ideas and expressions appear uncontroversial today, their support among the Protestant movement led to recrimination. It was formally banned by the Catholic church in the early 17th century, and possession of it could be punished severely. This translation of the Theologia Germanica dates to the late 19th century; Susanna Winkworth's version draws on her translating skills and familiarity with theological texts, and remains favored by English readers and religious scholars.

Download or read book Theologia Germanica written by and published by Scriptoria Books. This book was released on 2010-04-07 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Theologia Germanica is believed to have been written around 1350, by a priest in the house of the Teutonic order in Frankfort, Germany. The author may have been associated with the "Friends of God," led by Dominicans, John Tauler and Blessed Henry Suso. This book came to the attention of Martin Luther, and he is credited with giving the treatise its modern name. Written over a century before Luther's time, its theology draws upon the Latin Christianity of the Rhineland. The Theologia Germanica has appeared in many editions and languages over its 600-year history, and has taken its place beside the Imitation of Christ, in literature of devotion. Susanna Winkworth (1820-1884), translated the most complete version of the Theologia Germanica known, based on the Wurtzburg Manuscript, discovered in the 19th century. Her translation, first published in 1854, includes additional passages not found in the editions made popular by Martin Luther. In this Modern English Edition of the Theologia Germanica from Scriptoria Books, only obsolete, archaic, and poetic words have been edited. The grammar and syntax of Susanna Winkworth's original translation from the German manuscript, have been preserved. This creates an edition that is true to the composition of the original translation, while providing a more-modern easier-reading text. Scriptoria Books has transcribed this edition from the original text. It was then edited, formatted, and proofread through each revision. Our procedures are not automated.

Book The Theologia Germanica

Download or read book The Theologia Germanica written by Martin Luther and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First discovered by Martin Luther, Theologia Germanica was originally published in 1516. This reprint of the 1893 edition was translated by British scholar SUSANNE WINKWORTH (1820-1884). A departure from many Christian writings of the period, this work suggests that by following in Christ's path, anyone could be united with God, for the life of Christ is an example of perfection for all to follow. With its discussions of sin and explanations as to how selfishness is the fundamental sin, this classic book will appeal to religions scholars and anyone interested in the Reformation. German theologian and reformer MARTIN LUTHER (1483-1546) argued against many of the common practices of the Roman Catholic Church, including the selling of indulgences and the Church's insistence that it needed to mediate between people and God. Luther's writings were greatly influential in the Protestant Reformation, which forever changed Christianity. He wrote a number of important works, although many consider his translation of the Bible into German to be one of his most important contributions.
