Rare first edition of Johann Conrad Dippel’s commentary on Jakob Böhme. Johann Konrad Dippel (1673 – 1734), was a German Pietist theologian, physician, and alchemist. Dippel's reputation as a controversial theologian earned him both defenders and enemies throughout all of Europe. He would later become connected as the possible inspiration to Mary Shelley’s gothic horror “Frankenstein or The Modern Prometheus”.
