Produktbeschreibung
This book is the first anthology of writings to be devoted to Icelandic theologian and religious writer Magnús Eiríksson (180681). A contemporary of Kierkegaard, Eiríksson made a name (and enemies) for himself by being an outspoken advocate of tolerance and freedom of thought and conscience in matters of religion. This book aims to resurrect Eiríkssons thought for a new era, with contributions covering the key topics of his writings and offering insight into his historical and cultural background. By explaining Eiríkssons frequent disagreements with his contemporaries -- including Kierkegaard -- the contributors shed light on the period as a whole and offer a new perspective on religious thought in the Danish Golden Age.
