Description

Johann Arndt (1555-1621) hat mit seiner Frommigkeitsliteratur eine ausserordentlich breite Wirkung erzielt. Das Anliegen, seine Leser zu einer geistlichen Erneuerung anzuleiten, gilt als Leitmotiv seiner Schriften. Arndts Lehre der Nachfolge Christi ist in diesem Zusammenhang von zentraler Bedeutung. Die Untersuchung des imitatio-Christi-Konzepts offenbart das schillernde Profil des Theologen, der bestrebt ist, teils disparate Traditionen in einem Entwurf zusammenzufuhren. Zur Sprache kommen neben der lutherischen Theologie insbesondere Paracelsus und die an ihn anknupfende Schule, Valentin Weigel, sowie mittelalterlich-mystische Quellen. Diese Studie analysiert die Varianten der zwischen 1605 und 1610 gedruckten Auflagen des Buchs>Von wahrem Christentum
