The Life of Augustus Herman Franke is a biographical work written by Heinrich Ernst Ferdinand Guericke in 1847. The book tells the story of Franke, a German theologian and philanthropist who lived during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Franke is best known for his work in establishing the Pietist movement, a Protestant movement that emphasized personal piety and spiritual renewal. The book chronicles Franke's life from his childhood in L�����beck, Germany, to his education at the University of Leipzig, where he became involved in the Pietist movement. It also details Franke's work in founding the Halle Orphanage, a charitable organization that provided education and training for orphans and underprivileged children. The Life of Augustus Herman Franke provides a fascinating glimpse into the life and work of one of the most important figures in the Pietist movement, and sheds light on the social and religious context of Germany in the early modern period.With An Introductory Preface.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
