His great grandfather, Bartholomew had studied with Martin Luther at the University of Wittenberg before becoming a Lutheran pastor. Woken himself was educated at the school of Kolberg, University of Rostock, and later, Leipzig University where he acquired a fortune of knowledge in philosophy and theology and Oriental culture. Woken's combined knowledge of the Oriental language as well as Lutheran theology led him to become well-versed in biblical criticism with a trans-cultural focus. This exceptional work would make a fine addition to the library of any theologian. Please feel free to view our photographs of this piece. Ships daily. Seller Inventory # 1108160015
