The paper offers an analysis of the rational mystical theology of Lessing through a reading of his 1777 dialogue The Testament of John. The dialogue presents the commandment of love as the crucial truth of the religion of Christ, revealing an anti-apocalyptic and anti-dogmatic stance. Through the analysis of the text’s sources and philosophical models, the paper shows how Origenian and Spinozian accents intertwine in Lessing’s irenic and universalizing thought.

Abstract
The paper offers an analysis of the rational mystical theology of Lessing through a reading of his 1777 dialogue The Testament of John. The dialogue presents the commandment of love as the crucial truth of the religion of Christ, revealing an anti-apocalyptic and anti-dogmatic stance. Through the analysis of the text’s sources and philosophical models, the paper shows how Origenian and Spinozian accents intertwine in Lessing’s irenic and universalizing thought.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
