A Posthumous Paper by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing. Edited by C. A. E. Schmidt pseudonym for Johann Andreas Riem 1787. First volume is a “neue Auflage” second volume is a first printing third volume probably also a first printing; it does not list a publisher but most scholars think it was Wever who published this volume as well. 8vo old half vellum and patterned paper-covered boards 276 298 410 pp. Very good light soil and rubbing to binding minor ex-library marks with bookplates to pastedown blindstamp to title pages. Lessing died in 1781; these posthumously published 'fragments' are an outgrowth of the Wolfenbüttel controversy 1774–1778 which arose when Lessing serving as librarian at the ducal library in Wolfenbüttel published fragments from the late Hermann Samuel Reimarus’s unpublished manuscripts criticizing revealed religion and biblical miracles. Lessing issued these as the Wolfenbüttel Fragments arguing that open theological debate was vital for truth. The fragments’ rationalist deistic arguments—denying revelation and the divinity of Christ—provoked fierce opposition from Lutheran authorities particularly Pastor Johann Melchior Goeze of Hamburg. The dispute escalated into public pamphlet battles over faith reason and the limits of theological inquiry ending when the Duke forbade Lessing to write on religion. The controversy became a key moment in the German Enlightenment’s challenge to orthodox theology. These appear to be Lessing’s last word on the subject with an essay and notes by him plus further material from Reimarus’s manuscripts issued from beyond the grave. Arnold Wever hardcover
1770ref. H443Braunschweig / Berlin: Buchhandlung des Waisenhauses / Christian Friedrich Voss 1770. First printing. Hardcover. Fair. First printings of two books bound together. 8vo 8 x 6.25 inches early or original half leather and patterned boards. Fair copy with ex-library marks wear and rubbing to binding rear board just about detached inch loss of leather to head of spine. Text of first volume tanned but free of marks but for embossed library stamp on title page of first volume second volume somewhat brighter. 8 189 1 pp; 8 87 1 pp 5 engraved plates plus elaborate engraved vignette on title page and engraved pictorial vignette as headpiece to p. 1 of text of second volume. Berengarius Turonensis is mainly in German with portions in German: Lessing examines the 11th-century theologian Berengar of Tours who challenged the orthodox doctrine of the real presence in the Eucharist. Lessing uses Berengar’s case to explore the limits of church authority and the tension between faith and reason essentially presenting Berengar as an early rational critic of dogma and a symbol of intellectual freedom within theology. “Wie die Alten den Tod gebildet” “How the Ancients Represented Death” 1769 is an essay on classical art and symbolism. Lessing argues that the Greeks did not depict Death as a terrifying skeleton or monster but rather as a gentle sleeping youth—sometimes holding a torch turned downward—reflecting their view of death as peaceful rest rather than horror. The essay contrasts ancient serenity with modern fear and serves as a key example of Lessing’s aesthetic humanism. Both are rare in the trade and seldom come up for auction.

1778ref. H645Wolfenbüttel i.e. Hamburg Braunschweig: Buchhandlung des Fürstl. Waisenhauses various - many without publisher information 1778. Hardcover. Good. Published 1777-1778. Octavo brown library cloth gilt stamped on spine various publications each with its own title page various paginations totalling about 500 pp. Good copy institutional marks including bookplate and due slip on endpapers small embossed blindstamp on first title page once or twice to text otherwise good clean copy. The central publications of the controversy that erupted when Lessing published 'fragments' of the work of Hermann Samuel Reimarus that attacked Lutheran orthodoxy and argued for a rational deism rejecting the theology of revelation. This led to an exchange of polemical pamphlets between Lessing and the principle defender of Lutheranism Johann Melchior Goeze a pastor from Hamburg. These culminated in Lessing's 11 'Anti-Goeze' tracts that contain the seeds of his thoughts regarding religion that became the foundation of 'Nathan the Wise.' The so-called Fragmentes Dispute is considered the most important theological controversy of the 18th century pitting Lessing's Enlightenment philosophy against Lutheran orthodoxy.
