Vom Norden kam er damals in die Pathenaue herunter. Nicht weit, aber doch von Sachsen her ein Stück ins Preußische hinauf. Blumen streute dem jungen Fant kein Mensch auf den Weg. Im Gegenteil: eher bang war es ihm ums Herz. Wäre er doch viel lieber auf dem väterlichen Hof am Rande der Dübener Heide geblieben. Und nun, von einem Augenblick zum anderen alles ganz anders. Der Schwester galt das Opfer und er brachte es gern. Helfen wollte er ihr zu einem erfüllten Leben. War er nicht stark genug, um nur auf sich selbst gestellt zu sein? Das pochende Herz in der Brust nein, er durfte es nicht hören. Er, der jetzt mit fast leeren Händen in der Welt stand. Und doch, warum schoss ihm das Blut in die Stirn, wenn ihre dunklen Augen in die Seinen tauchten, ihr Mund so schelmisch lächelte, als könnte sie die Zukunft von seinem Gesicht ablesen? Sie konnte es. Das Glück fest in der Hand dieses aufrechten Kerls. Erfolg, wohin er seinen Fuß setzte. Bald wählten sie ihn im Dorf in der Parthenaue an ihre Spitze. Sie sollten es nicht bereuen. Gerecht sein Urteil, unbestechlich die wasserhellen Augen. Blieb er nun von allem Unheil, aller Bitterkeit verschont, dieser Mann ohne Fehl und Tadel? Auch an ihm zogen die Jahre vorüber und dabei mancher Kummer herauf. In Trübsal versinken, das lag ihm nicht. Ein heller Sonnenstrahl wärmte bald sein ganzes Herz.
Ikke mange i dag vet at Danmark-Norge på 1700-tallet hadde tre koloniøyer i Karibien, der det ble dyrket sukkerrør. Dette arbeidet krevde fysisk styrke utover det man den gangen mente kunne forventes av hvite menn. Danmark-Norge kjøpte slaver fra Vest-Afrika, og disse ble tvangsskipet til de tre koloniøyene. Romanen gir oss et gripende innblikk i vår ukjente fortid. Vi møter den dansk-norske embetsmannen Ferdinand, som får ansettelse hos generalguvernøren på slaveøya St. Croix. Han blir kjent med et samfunn med en liten hvit overklasse som hersker over ti ganger så mange slaver. Ferdinands tro på opplysningstidens idealer om frihet, likhet og brorskap blant mennesker må vike for det systemet han etter hvert blir en del av gjennom de seksten årene han bor på St. Croix. Vi møter også Elisabeth, hans unge, karibiske kone, som aldri har vært utenfor St. Croix, men som forårsaker at det blir etablert en navneforbindelse mellom øya St. Croix i Karibien og nåtidens bydel St. Croix i Fredrikstad.
Ferdinand Christian Baur (1792-1860) has been described as "the greatest and at the same time the most controversial theologian in German Protestant theology since Schleiermacher." The controversy was epitomized by a nineteenth-century British critic who wrote that his theory "makes of Christianity a thing of purely natural origin, calls in question the authenticity of all but a few of the New Testament books, and makes the whole collection contain not a harmonious system of divine truth, but a confused mass of merely human and contradictory opinions as to the nature of the Christian religion." The contributors to this volume, however, regard Baur as an epoch-making New Testament scholar whose methods and conclusions, though superseded, have been mostly affirmed during the century and a half since his death. This collection focuses on the history of early Christianity, although as a historian of the church and theology Baur covered the entire field up to own time. He combined the most exacting historical research with a theological interpretation of history influenced by Kant, Schelling, and Hegel. The first three chapters discuss Baur's relation to Strauss, Möhler, and Hegel. Then a central core of chapters considers his historical and exegetical perspectives (Judaism and Hellenism, Gnosticism, New Testament introduction and theology, the Pauline epistles, the Synoptic Gospels, John, the critique of miracle, and the combination of absoluteness and relativity). The final chapters view his influence by analyzing the reception of Baur in Britain, Baur and Harnack, and Baur and practical theology. This work offers a multi-faceted picture of his thinking, which will stimulate contemporary discussion.
