Jakob Boehme grew up in the northern part of Germany. For the majority of his adult life, he worked as a master-shoemaker in the town of Gorlitz. Because all of his books had to be translated into English, their existence on this site is a testimony to the high value people have placed on his work. Boehme's authorship began in his 37th year of life. It would last 11 years.
