Beschreibung

Jena, Günther Hüttich, 1572. 8vo. (10) 154 lvs. Modern marbled paper-covered boards. VD 16 W 2804. Third Latin edition of Wigand's summary of the way in which the church of Magdeburg taught the Christian faith. In the 1550s, before he was appointed professor of theology at the University of Jena, Wigand was pastor and superintendent at Magdeburg for some years. His 'Methodus doctrinae Christi' was first published in German and sets forth twenty-eight loci or topics. Although the order of the topics differs at a few significant points, for the most part the same topics are treated as in the later editions of Melanchthon's 'Loci communes'. Wigand however, who was one of the leading Gnesio-Lutherans, presented different content and conclusions in several key loci. - Library stamp and two owner's inscriptions on title page and some old underlinings and marginal annotations.
