Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from What the World Owes Luther On the night of the tenth of November, 1483, more than four centuries ago, in the quaint little German town of Eisleben, Luther, the monk who shook the world, was born. A century before, the martyr Hus prophesied that from his ashes in a hundred years another swan - the meaning of Hus in the Bohemian tongue - would arise who could not be destroyed. As Luther´s family coat of arms was a swan, many historians have seen in his birth a fulfillment of the dying martyr´s prophecy. Whether such strange coincidences are mere accidents, or whether they are links in that chain of mystic agency which circumvents the realities of life, one can never know. But certainly the gaze of the supernatural world could not have been closed to what then and there transpired. Says Thomas Carlyle: "In the world that day, there was not a more entirely unimportant looking pair of people than this miner and his wife. And yet what were all emperors, popes and potentates in comparison? There was born here once more a mighty man, whose light was to flame as the beacon over long centuries and epochs of the world.
