[Not of This World? Positions of a Pietist. Insights about his Letters, selected, partly translated from Latin]
In the course of his life, Philipp Jacob Spener (1635–1705), known as the founder of Pietism in Lutheranism, used more and more time to cultivate an extensive correspondence. From near and far, from every status, from strangers and friends, every day brought him questions and reports to react to, not just out of decency, but because letter writing was the only practicable way to communicate with the world, to stay connected and to understand oneself in it. His interlocutors were different, as were the topics Spener had to deal with. By reading his letters, one receives welcome insights into thought and world view of a man of the 17th century, who wanted to be both learned and pious, Christian and bourgeois.
From the large number of Spener’s letters a selection is presented in this book, which allows insights into his private life, his behaviour towards people, his understanding of nature and his social and political thinking.
