Eckhardt's Homiletisches Reallexikon, 1907–1917

A cumulative subject index to seven Missouri Synod periodicals, compiled by E. (Ernest) Eckhardt (1868–1939) and printed at St. Louis between 1907 and 1917. Under each headword it sets numbered theses, and beside each thesis the places where the periodicals had treated it — by volume and page, running twenty years past the last of Der Lutheraner's own registers. Where the archive holds the volume a citation names, the citation below is a link to that page.

The alphabetical run is here in full, Abendmahl through Wunder, assembled from five scans: two archive.org items, a pair from Google Books that closes what had looked like a gap in the middle of the alphabet, and the archive.org tail. With it are the Beichtreden appendix, Eckhardt's own printed Register, and the separate 1913 treatise Die Schule, bound in with the later volumes and kept here under its own heading.

Headwords are spelled as Eckhardt set them, so the filter folds the differences that would otherwise hide them — Sklaverei finds Sclaverei, Konkordienformel finds Concordienformel. What you see listed is always the printed spelling.

The German below is machine transcription of the 1907–1917 print (tesseract, Fraktur model) and has not been proof-read against the page. Read it as a finding aid: the citations are what it is for, and a garbled word is a defect of our OCR, not of Eckhardt.

Die Liturgie ſoll man nicht ſchreien und plärren, die Buchſtaben rein ausſprechen. Anm. a. Eine ſchlichte Liturgie iſt beſſer als theatra⸗ liſches Singen. Anm. b. Das Singen der Liturgie iſt 1. erwecklich und erbaulich, 2. ein Gebrauch aus älterer Zeit. Anm. c.

Note b. In the founding of Lutheran congregations, one should not begin backwards with liturgy, but with teaching. 2. If a liturgy must be introduced in a congregation, one should adopt a good Lutheran one and not trim one to suit one's own taste and notions. b. **Singing it.** The liturgy should not be shouted or bawled; the words should be pronounced clearly. Note a. A simple liturgy is better than theatrical singing. Note b. The singing of the liturgy is 1. stirring and edifying, 2. a custom from earlier times. Note c. Whoever has become accustomed to the beautiful liturgical chant will not want to do without it. — Many, however, have lost their feeling for it. Loch. 67. Note d. On organ accompaniment, see Loch. 76; on intonation for the antiphons and collects, see Schulb. 43, 199–200. No secular music in worship. Schulb. 43, 266. Note e. Liturgical writings: see Loch. Introd. 8. L. W. 4, 207–209. On Wilhelm Löhe and liturgy, see L. W. 54, 156 f. A judgment on our ritualism: L. W. 14, 121. **Objections:** a. “That is Catholic.” b. Luke 11, 2: When you pray, say [these words]. c. Singing at the altar is neither properly sung nor spoken. d. Not all pastors can sing. e. One must stick with the old way.

A citation shown like this names a volume the archive does not hold — most of Der Lutheraner and Lehre und Wehre past Jahrgang 10, and the five other series Eckhardt indexes, none of which are here. Those references are printed as Eckhardt set them rather than hidden: the reference is the useful thing even when we cannot serve the page. Page images of the Reallexikon itself are not served in this build; the scan note under each entry gives the item and image index in the archive.org copy.
