Matheus Miller’s Memoir: A Merchant’s Life in the Seventeenth Century By Thomas Max Safley
English | PDF | 2000 | 236 Pages | ISBN : 1349408816 | 1.5 MB
This book reconstructs the worldview of a Lutheran merchant from the city of Augsburg in the seventeenth century. Miller's is a singular story. Though he lived through some of the great events of his age, he scarcely mentioned them. Though he was raised in the standard values of his age, he understood and applied them idiosyncratically.
