Abstract

There is a long during controversy about the reception of the rhetoric tradition within Christian theology. The essay focuses on the question of the relationship between voice and prayer. Against the tradition of imagining prayer as an essentially mental and inner event, which may be in the background of the grüne Heinrich’s shame about his own voice, the author underlines the essential exteriority of prayer expressed paradigmatically in the voice of prayer. This relation between prayer and voice is shown in a conversation with Martin Luther’s and Jean-Louis Chrétien’s understanding of prayer.
