Ebook: Sämtliche Werke: Band 9 Dichtungen 1647–1648

The volume contains Johann Rist’s genealogical “Paean to Emperor Ferdinand III,” a description of the 1648 natural disaster in northern Germany (“Holstein Will Not Forget”), and the first edition of the passion hymns in “Jesus Christ Led to his Suffering and Death.” In 1647, Rist, after being nominated by Harsdörffer, became a member of the Fruchtbringende Gesellschaft (“Fruitbearing Society”), where he was known as “der Rüstige,” the lusty.
