Die Gottsucher

A mysterious theological classic rediscovered: The Book of the 24 Philosophers. About a thousand years ago, an unremarkable book appeared out of nowhere in a Parisian library. It is called "What is God? The Book of the 24 Philosophers" and is one of the most enigmatic books in the world. Many simply refer to it as the "Liber," which is Latin for "the book." The only content it contains: 24 attempts to define God. No one knows the exact age of the book. No one knows where it came from. No one has any idea who wrote it, whether it was a single person or many. But one thing is clear: to this day, it has helped many people reflect on God and the world.

Rainer Oberthür has retold "The Book of the 24 Philosophers" for today, interpreting it freely in his own words. He expands on the story and presents everything in simpler language. He imagines that philosophers gather together and bring their children along to discuss these 24 attempts at understanding God and to think together. Thus, this is a book for young and old alike, aiding in reflection, contemplation, and independent thinking, as well as in questioning, marveling, and grasping the greatest mystery.

With this book, Rainer Oberthür's "Seeker" series is complete: In "Soul Seeker," he explores mysteries on the personal level, while in "Peace Seeker," he poses questions about the "We" of society. Finally, "God Seekers" embarks on a quest for answers regarding the Higher. Features: Fully illustrated in four colors, with numerous illustrations.
