2020 | 630 Pages | ISBN: 9004426485 | PDF | 4 MB
Previously considered irretrievably lost, the discovery of the only manuscript of the Messias Puer composed by Knorr von Rosenroth, the leading exponent of Christian Kabbalah in the seventeenth century, gives us an important insight into the evolution of his thought and specific vision of the relations between Jews and Christians. Moreover, the subtle intertwining of both Kabbalah and the emerging biblical criticism at work in this partial commentary on the New Testament Gospels sheds new light on the largely unexplored role of Esotericism during the Modern Era in the construction of the future study of religion. This book includes a critical edition of the original manuscript and an annotated translation.Anna M. Vileno, Ph.D. (2014), Free University of Brussels (ULB), post-doctoral researcher for the FNRS, teaches History of Religions. She has published À l'ombre de la kabbale. Philologie et ésotérisme dans l'œuvre de Christian Knorr de Rosenroth (2016). Robert J. Wilkinson, Ph.D. (2004), University of the West of England, has published several papers and books on Early Modern Syriac Studies and Christian Kabbalah. His last book is Tetragrammaton Western Christians and the Hebrew Name of God (Brill 2015).
