The Works of Dietrich Bonhoeffer
In a recent blog, we mentioned that because of our continuing expansion, 2014 will be an exciting year for Accordance. The addition of more personnel has led to the quick development of many new resources. One of these recent additions is the expansive collection, Works of Dietrich Bonhoeffer. This collection of works by one of the most influential Christian martyrs in history is an English translation of the German Dietrich Bonhoeffer Werke. In these 16 volumes, one can find a variety of resources:
Theological writings
Academic Papers
Sermons
Meditations
Essays
Lectures
Homilies
Liturgies
Correspondence letters
Letters from prison
Diaries
Catechetical Lessons
Ecumenical Works
Bible Studies
Fictional Writings
Looking at the variety of topics above, you can see that this collection offers something for everyone – pastors, theologians, historians, seminary students, and casual readers. The scope of this collection is really what makes it an invaluable research tool.
While there is a wealth of theological material, what I find most interesting about this module is the collection of personal letters. When you see theology fleshed out in the life of an individual facing grave circumstances, it speaks volumes. A book written on Discipleship is great, but sending joyful words home to mom and dad from prison demonstrates the true of mark of discipleship.
In addition to these magnificent resources, the Accordance edition includes a German Page Number search field. So, references to Dietrich Bonhoeffer Werke can be easily accessed. Also, as mentioned on the product page, Works of Dietrich Bonhoeffer offers a fresh, critical translation of Bonhoeffer’s writings, with introductions, annotations, and interpretations. These editorial additions provide a wealth of insight into the minutia of Bonhoeffer’s life and writings even down to the weight of paper on which he wrote.
The 16 volumes of Works of Dietrich Bonhoeffer can be purchased individually, or as a set at a huge discount. Volume 14 is currently available in software only here in Accordance.
