Publisher Description
Nein On the face of it, applying the adjective "ecumenical" to the flesh and blood Wilhelm Loehe (1) would be both anachronistic and inaccurate. Of the six tributaries that flow into the sea of contemporary ecumenism, (2) only two were pumping water in the second half of the nineteenth century. Moreover, Loehe did all he could to dam the first of these streams, nor is there any reason to suppose that he would have assisted the course of the second, which did not spring up until a good decade after his death. As for the other four, they simply were not on his radar screen.
