Great Opponents of the Saints

Published by Diogenes as Große Unheilige
Original Title: Große Unheilige
In search of the »true image of man«, and with great psychological insight, Walter Nigg describes and interprets the misdemeanours of the »opponents of the saints« without denying their greatness. The book relates the lives of the great anti-saints King Saul, Judas Iscariot, Heloise, Emperor Friedrich II, Michael Bakunin, Charles Baudelaire and Friedrich Nietzsche.

»Outstanding though they are, it is not the psychological skill of his portraits or the literary quality of his essays that makes Walter Nigg's book so unusual. Its real greatness lies on the religious level; it bears testimony to the essential nature of Christianity and brings it closer to the people of today.«
