The Banished Count

The Banished Count: Or The Life Of Nicolas Louis Zinzendorf is a biography written by Felix Bovet and published in 1865. The book chronicles the life of Nicolas Louis Zinzendorf, a German nobleman and religious leader who founded the Moravian Church. Zinzendorf was born into a wealthy family and received a privileged upbringing, but he became disillusioned with the materialistic lifestyle of the aristocracy and turned to religion. He became a leader of the Moravian Church, which emphasized the importance of personal piety and communal living. Zinzendorf's religious beliefs and practices were controversial, and he was exiled from his homeland for a time. Despite this, he continued to spread the teachings of the Moravian Church throughout Europe and North America. The Banished Count provides a detailed account of Zinzendorf's life and legacy, and offers insights into the history of the Moravian Church and the religious movements of the 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
