Weigel, Valentin: Sämtliche Schriften. Neue Edition / Band 7: Von Betrachtung des Lebens Christi. Vom Leben Christi. De vita Christi

Weigel‹s Christological works met with interest outside of the German-speaking countries as well very early on. A Dutch translation of the homiletic pamphlet ›Von Betrachtung des Lebens Christi‹ (A Reflection on the Life of Christ), written in 1574, was published in 1647 and 1686. An English translation of the comprehensive work ›Vom Leben Christi‹ (On the Life of Christ), written in 1578, which advocated religious freedom and rejected the disputes between the confessions, in part with a purpose of polemic, was published in 1648. There are only extant fragments of the ›De vita Christi‹; which is in the appendix, a compilation in German based on various Weigel texts.
