Reihe: Eckhart: Texts and Studies

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 editor

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
