	Boehme: The Ungrund and Freedom (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The metaphysics of Boehme is voluntaristic, and not intellectualistic, as was the Greek and Medieval metaphysics.
		Boehme to the very end is seriously concerned with the problem of evil and he approaches it neither as the pedagogue nor as the moralist, nor from the point of view of tending to infants.
		Boehme was perhaps the first in the history of human thought to have seen, that at the basis of being and prior to being lies a groundless freedom, the passionate desire of the Nothing to become something, the darkness, within which would blaze the fire and light, i.e.

		Jacob Boehme (or Behmen, as he has usually been called in England), the peasant shoemaker of Görlitz, is one of the most amazing phenomena in an amazing age.
		Although illiterate and untrained, Boehme was in touch with the thought of his time, and the form of his work, at any rate, owes a good deal to it.
		This doctrine of the hidden and manifest is peculiar to Boehme, and lies at the root of his explanation of evil.

	Boehme: Sophia and the Androgyne and the Russian Sophiological Current (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Boehme, to whom Russian theologians of a sophianic bent tend to react negatively, was nonetheless one of those geniuses, who have anticipated the settings of the problem in dealing with the mystery of God's creation.
		Boehme's teachings present the challenging tasks of a new Christian anthropology, of the surmounting of the slavery subjection of man under the Old Testament consciousness, in a bold attempt at discerning the mysteries of the creation within the light of Christ.
		Boehme is not a theologian, he is -- a theosophist in the finest sense of the word, and his contemplations are not easily to be carried over into the traditional theological language.

	JAKOB BOEHME - Title (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		BOEHME, Jakob (1576-1624), a mystical writer, whose surname (of which Fechner gives eight German varieties) appears in English literature as Beem, Behmont, andc., and notably in the form Behmen, was born at AltSeidenberg, in Upper Lusatia, a straggling hamlet among the hills, some ten miles S.E. of Gorlitz.
		Boehme is always greatest when he breaks away from his fancies and his trammels, and allows speech to the voice of his heart.
		Translating Boehme's thought out of the uncouth dialect of material symbols (as to which one doubts sometimes whether he means them as concrete instances, or as pictorial illustrations, or as a mere memoria technica) we find that Boehme conceives of the correlation of two triads of forces.

	Hegel's History of Philosophy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		But Boehme has to attribute the high honour to which he was raised mainly to the garb of sensuous feeling and perception which he adopted; for ordinary sensuous perception and inward feeling, praying and yearning, and the pictorial element in thought, allegories and such like, are in some measure held to be essential in Philosophy.
		Jacob Boehme was born in 1575 of poor parents, at Altseidenburg, near Görlitz, in Upper Lusatia.
		Boehme's general conceptions thus on the one hand reveal themselves as both deep and sound, but on the other, with all his need for and struggle after determination and distinction in the development of his divine intuitions of the universe, he does not attain either to clearness or order.

	The Ecole Initiative: Jacob Boehme
		Boehme's bold speculations about development within the Godhead, as well as his rejection of narrow dogmatism and bibliolatry, were to exercise a profound influence on contemporary Protestantism, both in Germany and elsewhere.

		Boehme's thesis that God's coming to self-consciousness was a genetic process led to a new model for revelation, one involving the mediation of successive creations through pre-mundane as well as worldly time.

	Jacob Boehme
		Boehme, the German mystic, was born in the East German town of Goerlitz in 1575.
		Martin Buber has written that the "summation of (Boehme's) thoughts, is the problem of the relation of the individual to the world." For Boehme, as a precursor to existentialist thought, the Godhead, as the Undgrund or Abyss, is unknowable to human beings.
		The world as becoming, in Boehme's cosmology, is the self-revelation of God in the sensible, emerging out of a desire to reveal Himself to Himself.

	Buber: Concerning Jacob Boehme (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Boehme's basic concern, that which is the summation of his thought, is the problem of the relation of the individual to the world.
		However today we are closer to Boehme than we are to the teachings of Feuerbach, the ideas of St. Francis of Assisi, who called the trees, birds, and stars his brothers and sisters, and nearer yet to the Vedanta.
		For Boehme struggle and love reconciliations and the conquering of schisms are bridges between the I and the world; struggle, because in it and through it, the I and another I are unfolded and revealed in its beauty, and love because in it the essences unite themselves to God.

		Jacob Boehme, the seventeenth-century German speculative mystic, influenced the philosophers Hegel and Schelling and both English and German Romantics alike with his visionary thought.
		Gnostic Apocalypse focuses on the way Boehme's thought repeats and surpasses post-reformation Lutheran thinking, deploys and subverts the commitments of medieval mysticism, realizes the speculative thrust of Renaissance alchemy, is open to esoteric discourses such as the Kabbalah, and articulates a dynamic metaphysics.
		Boehme's visionary discourse does represent a return of Gnosticism in the modern period, and in this lies its fundamental claim to our contemporary philosophical, theological, and literary attention.

	Androgyny in Christianity (Summary of Dissertation)
		The starting-point and first objective of this study is androgyny in the works of Jacob Boehme (1575-1624), the shoemaker, visionary, and writer of influential but mostly neglected mystical works, who lived in Görlitz, on the river Neisse (now in Eastern Germany).
		Boehme's work is always aimed at the rebirth of himself and his readers.
		Boehme elaborates this vision into an extended exegesis of the history of the patriarchs of Israel and of the redemption by Christ, Himself the true and (as far as he is human) restored Androgyne, born of the virgin (!) Mary, and through Whom every man can be reborn to unity with God.
