- Abstrakt
The article analyzes the introductory part of Henry of Langenstein's Lectura super prologos bibliae from 1385. In this Principium, theology is conceived as sapientia. Langenstein defines theological wisdom in terms of a fourfold relation to God: by intellect, love, worship, and obedience. Langenstein's sapiential theology emphasizes the necessary link between study and a corresponding religious way of life, since every form of study is part of fallen humanity's return to God. Langenstein also distinguishes theology from other sciences by pointing out the critical and formative function of theology for other sciences and by warning against false sciences and superstition.
