Publisher's Synopsis
This book, "Gersen, Gerson Und Kempis; Oder Ist Einer Von Diesen Dreyen, Und Welcher Ist Der Verfasser Der Vier BÃ1/4cher Von Der Nachfolge Christi?" by Johann Peter Silbert, delves into the historical debate surrounding the authorship of the influential Christian devotional work, "The Imitation of Christ."

This meticulously researched work seeks to determine the true author of this timeless spiritual guide, providing a critical review of historical evidence and shedding light on a long-standing literary and religious mystery. It is an essential read for scholars of religious history, theologians, and anyone interested in the origins of one of Christianity's most beloved books.
