Description

The Theologia Germanica is a spiritual treatise written by an unknown author in the 14th century in Germany. It was later edited and published by a man named Johann Tauler. The book is divided into two parts, the first being a series of dialogues between a spiritual teacher and his student, and the second being a collection of teachings on various spiritual topics. The author emphasizes the importance of inner transformation and the direct experience of God, rather than relying solely on external religious practices. The book also discusses the nature of sin, the importance of humility, and the role of suffering in spiritual growth. The Theologia Germanica had a significant influence on later German mystics, including Martin Luther. This edition of the book is translated by Joseph Bernhart.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
