Philipp Jakob Spener’s name is closely connected with the beginning of the Pietist movement within the Lutheran church in Germany. His letters are very important sources for the research of the early modern period in general. Volume 8 includes letters from 1686 and those which were undated or unknown until now, all written in Frankfurt, and letters he wrote as a student and preacher in Strasbourg (1653-1666).
