AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
[THEOLOGY, RHETORIC]
Meffreth, Verbi Dei Praeconis Sermonum Nicolai Henrici, 1612
The collection contains sermons of Meffreth, a preacher of the Word of God who was highly regarded in his time, whose origins go back to the year 1443. The present edition from 1612 constitutes a reissue of these significant theological and rhetorical works. Meffreth was known as a preacher for his ability to convey biblical content in a way that is understandable and persuasive, which is reflected in the structured arrangement of his Sermones. The sermons are important testimonies of the spiritual rhetoric of the Late Middle Ages and the early modern period, and they document both theological positions and the preaching practice of their era. The edition printed by Nicolai Henrici demonstrates the lasting relevance of these works in the early 17th century. The Sermones are of interest to church and theology historians as well as to all who engage with the development of Christian preaching and the rhetoric of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. They provide insights into the spiritual education and piety of that time.
34×22.5 cm. 499 pp., somewhat rubbed full leather binding of the period. Internally only slightly browned. Overall very good condition.
