Produktbeschreibung
The study addresses the role and influence Otto of Freising, the famous 12th century historian, attributed to humans in the course of history in his writings. It is shown that Otto, who was well-versed in the theological and philosophical debates of his time, made the human being's nature and relationship to God the central theme of his work and that he interpreted his historical material largely from contemporary anthropological concepts. Otto characterized humans not as passively subject to an uncontrollable historical course, but as the true protagonists of history. Consequently, Otto believed that it was also humans who were responsible for shaping earthly conditions.
