De qué trata
El primer libro de Jacob Böhme: una visión de Dios, la naturaleza y el origen del mal, escrita con el vocabulario de un zapatero que no había estudiado.
Contexto e historia
Lo escribió hacia 1612, tras lo que él describe como una iluminación repentina mirando un reflejo en el estanque. No lo publicó: un manuscrito circuló sin su permiso, el consistorio de Görlitz lo condenó y le prohibieron escribir durante años, prohibición que respetó hasta que no pudo más. La prosa es difícil porque se inventa el léxico sobre la marcha. De aquí sale buena parte de la mística alemana posterior, y Hegel y Schelling lo leyeron de veras.
