Full Description
This volume (based on Loris Sturlese's Italian collection from the year
2014) contains the vernacular texts and English translations of 64 of
Eckhart's German sermons, which can be linked with the cycle of
preaching during the liturgical year (De tempore). A second
volume, currently in preparation, will be devoted to a further 56
vernacular sermons for the feasts of the saints (De sanctis). A
further volume will contain Eckhart's Latin homilies (both De
tempore and the few surviving ones De sanctis). Loris
Sturlese and Markus Vinzent will thus provide both the entire vernacular
and Latin legacy of 'authentic' homilies, totalling over 100 vernacular
and almost 100 Latin sermons. The first volume on the homilies De
tempore centres on the time between Advent and Trinity with a major
gap in the cycle in the summer time (absent are the weeks V-XV after
Trinity Sunday) and gives us Eckhart's preaching in literary form. As
the collection has been reconstructed, it seems to go back to a written,
arranged, and to a certain extent textualized and published opus, most
likely by Eckhart himself. The corpus of sermons that have been
relocated into their liturgical place from the critical edition of
Kohlhammer represents a work situated midway between oral texts and
their professional editor. It opens a door to students and interested
readers into the world of Eckhart's liturgical preaching, helped by a
thorough general introduction, short prefaces to all homilies and notes.
