The Book of Ruth Explained in Twenty-Eight Homilies - Hardcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Ludwig Lavater (1527-1586) was a Swiss Reformed theologian and colleague of his father-in-law, Heinrich Bullinger. He served as archdeacon at the Grossmünster in Zurich and was briefly antistes of the Zurich church as the successor of Rudolf Gwalther. Lavater was a prolific author, composing homilies, commentaries, a survey of the liturgical practices of the Zurich church, and a biography of Bullinger. His work on ghosts (De Spectris ...) was one of the most frequently printed demonological works of the early modern period.
