F. Draper, 1856. First American edition. Octavo. 203, [1, blank], [2, publisher's ads] pp. Publsher's elaborately blind-stamped brown cloth, gilt spine lettering, blue endpapers, edges stained red A lovely copy.This copy with a presentation slip tipped onto recto of front blank from to Elmira Howard from. S, H. Randall and dated 1885. On the verso of the same page is a manuscript poem (in a very neat hand) by Randall entitled "To Germanica Theologica." Silas H. Randall was a Cincinnati inventor, occultist and Johnsons chief assistant in management of the Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor. Elmira Howard was a 19th century female physician and a member of a tight circle of esotericists in Cincinnati that included Silas Randall, Dr. J. D. Buck, and James Ralston Skinner.Theologia Germanica, also known as Theologia Deutsch or Teutsch, or as Der Franckforter, is a mystical treatise believed to have been written in the later 14th century by an anonymous author. According to the introduction of the Theologia the author was a priest and a member of the Teutonic Order living in Frankfurt, Germany. The treatise's 54 chapters set forth an introduction to Christian perfection; it is in the Dionysian tradition as represented by Meister Eckhart and J. Tauler, and proposes poverty of spirit and abandonment to God as the means of transformation into the divine nature. The first English translation of the Theologia Germanica dates from 1648. A text from 1497, the Wuerzburg or Bronnbach manuscript, was discovered in 1843 and contained text not included in Luther's editions. This text forms the basis of most subsequent English translations. Winkworth's translation appeared first in London 2 years previously.For the mid-19th century, Susanna was a very accomplished scholar (a file that often discouraged women scholars). Winkworth translated the memoir and essays of German theologian Barthold Georg Niebuhr, in Life and Letters (1851 and 1852).[4] She followed with more German religious literature, with translations of the Theologia Germanica (1854)[5] and twenty-five sermons of medieval mystic Johannes Tauler (1858).[6] She completed an unfinished biography of Martin Luther by Julius Hare (1855), and collaborated with her sister on Signs of the Times (1856). Another translation, German Love, from the Papers of an Alien (1858) was based on the writings of Max Müller. Her last notable publications were a translation of Bunsen's God in History (1868-1870)., Printed and Published by W. F. Draper, 1856, 0<
