TY - BOOK ID - 469231 TI - Meister Eckhar, "on the Lord's prayer" = De oratione Dominica PY - 2012 VL - 2 SN - 9789042925847 9042925841 PB - Leuven: Peeters, DB - UniCat KW - Eckhart [Meister] UR - https://www.unicat.be/uniCat?func=search&query=sysid:469231 AB - This rather short text by Eckhart has been available in a critical edition for decades, but has been rarely read and studied, regarded by its editors as a mediocre piece of the young Eckhart. It is, indeed, a strangely looking work, almost entirely a cut-and-paste piece from Thomas Aquinas' Golden Chain. A close study of Eckhart's commentary, however, gives insights into his reception of the Patristic tradition, his dealing with Thomas' choice and provides a masterpiece of Eckhart's teaching on prayer. He himself held his work in high regard and used it when writing trinitarian homilies. ER -
