HIMMLISCHE LIBES-KUSSE by QUIRINUS KUHLMANN

50 GESCHICTLICH CHRISTLICH SONNET

The value of this short book of Christian Sonnets,derives its historic interest by reproducing these 'Heavenly-Kiss' sonnets in their original form,in old German print style and preserving a sonnet therein by one of the only poets to have been burned at the stake.The sonnet number 41(XL1) being Kuhlmann's unique poetic and mathematical masterpiece.A number of translations and paraphrases exist thereof in English and a translation of all 50 sonnets would be of both poetic and theologica value.
