Unbekannte Briefe von und an Ferdinand Christian Baur Mit einer Einleitung von Friedrich Wilhelm Graf

Published in Journal for the History of Modern Theology / Zeitschrift für Neuere Theologiegeschichte

Ursula Streckert, a mother of five and a succesfull teacher, started to write a doctoral thesis after her retirement. It dealt with Ferdinand Christian Baur and German politics in the years before the bourgeois revolution of 1848, with a special focus on Wurttemberg. At her plea, I agreed to be her Doktorvater, all the more as I was highly impresse...
