Johannes Tauler

1300 - 1361 Person Name: John Tauler (1300-61) Topics: God--the Father In whom we trust; God--in Jesus Christ His Love, Help, Healing Author of "As the bridegroom to his chosen" in New Church Praise Tauler, Johannes, was born at Strassburg about 1300, and seems to have been the son of Nikolus Tauler or Taweler, of Finkweiler, who in 1304 was a member of the Strassburg Town Council (Mitglied des Raths). About the year 1318 he entered the Dominican convent at Strassburg. He studied for eight years at Strassburg, where the famous Meister Eckhart (d. 1327) was Dominican Professor of Theology from 1312 to 1320. He then went to Cologne to undergo a further training, in theory and practical work, extending over four years. Thereafter he returned to Strassburg where he soon came into note as an eloquent and practical preacher. When much of Germany was laid under interdict by Pope John XXII., because of resenting his interference with the election of the German Emperor in 1324, the Dominicans at Strassburg still continued to preach, to celebrate mass, and to administer to the people the consolations of the Church, even though Strassburg was under the Papal bann. After the Diet of Frankfurt in 1338 the strife between Emperor and Pope (now Benedict XII., Pope since 1334) became more pronounced. Up to 1339 the Dominicans at Strassburg still continued to sing mass, but were then compiled to cease doing so by command of the superiors of their Order. As the Strassburg magistracy still remained faithful to the Emperor, they resented this submission, and accordingly closed the Dominican convent in 1339, and it stood empty lor three years and a half. About the beginning of 1339 we find Tauler in Basel, where he remained for some years, in close connection with Heinrich of Nördlingen and others of the so-called "Friends of God" in that city and neighbourhood. About 1346 he was again in Strassburg, aud he spent most of the remainder of his life there and at Cologne. He died at Strassburg on June 16, 1361.
