Summary: "Sünndagsklocken: Stadt- un Dörp-Predigten" by Friedrich Köhn is a collection of sermons written in the early 20th century. The work reflects on the usage of the Low German language in the church and the gradual replacement by High German, examining its cultural significance and the impact on local communities." The opening of the collection sets the stage by discussing the historical context surrounding the use of language in the church, particularly focusing on the decline of Low German in favor of High German post-Reformation. Köhn emphasizes the importance of using a language that the congregation understands, citing examples of community responses to the imposition of High German preaching. The author outlines a series of complaints from local parishioners over the centuries, highlighting the disconnect between the church's language and the language of the people, and argues for the revitalization of Low German in religious practices to foster a deeper connection to faith and community.
