Publisher's Synopsis

Gotthold's Emblems is a book written by Christian Scriver that explores the concept of invisible things being understood by things that are made, using the emblems of Gotthold as a guide. Gotthold is a fictional character who represents the author's ideal Christian, and his emblems are symbolic representations of spiritual truths. The book is divided into three parts, each consisting of a series of emblems that illustrate different aspects of Christian life and faith. Part one focuses on the nature of God and the importance of faith, part two explores the Christian's relationship with the world and the importance of humility, and part three delves into the Christian's relationship with themselves and the importance of self-examination. The emblems are accompanied by explanatory text that provides insight into their meaning and relevance to the Christian life. Overall, Gotthold's Emblems is a thought-provoking and inspiring book that offers a unique perspective on the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
