Pictura Docens [German]

Der Sindelfinger Pfarrer Johann Lorenz Schmidlin (1626-1692) war Mitglied eines Gelehrtenkreises um Prinzessin Antonia von Wurttemberg (1613-1679), der - in Form eines 1673 in der Kirche zu Bad Teinach enthullten Andachtsbildes - eine Visualisierung pansophischer Weltdeutung entwarf. Als Pendant schuf Schmidlin eine Bildbeschreibung in lateinischen Versen. Die vorliegende Ausgabe macht die Dichtung Schmidlins erstmals zuganglich und leistet damit einen fur Kunsthistoriker, Germanisten, Philosophen und Theologen gleichermassen wichtigen Beitrag zur Erforschung der geistigen Stromungen des 17. Jahrhunderts. Johann Lorenz Schmidlin (1626-1692), a protestant pastor from Sindelfingen, was a member of a group of scholars assembled by princess Antonia of Wurttemberg (1613-1679), who in 1673 attempted to visualize the concept of universal pansophy through a painting put up in the church of the Black Forest village of Bad Teinach. Schmidlin accompanied the painting with a Latin verse description. - This edition not only makes Schmidlin's work available to the public for the first time, it also makes an important contribution to the study of the intellectual world of 17th century Germany.
