Histoire critique de Manichee et du Manicheisme
by Beausobre,I.de.
2 volumes
Amsterdam, Bernard; 1734-39
Manichaeism teaches an elaborate dualistic cosmology describing the struggle between a good, spiritual world of light, and an evil, material world of darkness.
This work is representative of the Western historiography of Manichaeism and critically examines its history and development.
Size 8 by 10"
2 lvs, LXXVI, 594 pp.;
1 leaf, XXXIV, 806 pp.
Original leather binding
Gilt spine
First edition.
Beausobre (1659-1738) worked as a court preacher in Berlin since 1694 and had a brilliant reputation there as a speaker for the French Reformed Church.
In his historical writings, the Huguenot sought above all to prove "the uninterrupted apostolic succession of the Protestant Church" (Herzog-Hauck).
