Berengarius Turonensis is mainly in German with portions in German: Lessing examines the 11th-century theologian Berengar of Tours who challenged the orthodox doctrine of the real presence in the Eucharist. Lessing uses Berengar’s case to explore the limits of church authority and the tension between faith and reason essentially presenting Berengar as an early rational critic of dogma and a symbol of intellectual freedom within theology. “Wie die Alten den Tod gebildet†“How the Ancients Represented Death†1769 is an essay on classical art and symbolism. Lessing argues that the Greeks did not depict Death as a terrifying skeleton or monster but rather as a gentle sleeping youth—sometimes holding a torch turned downward—reflecting their view of death as peaceful rest rather than horror. The essay contrasts ancient serenity with modern fear and serves as a key example of Lessing’s aesthetic humanism. Both are rare in the trade and seldom come up for auction.
