Nevertheless, the Bull In agro dominico of 27th March 1329 already points towards the future directions that Eckhart research would subsequently take. There Eckhart is described in three-­‐fold manner as 'from Germany, a doctor of sacred theology (as it is said) and a professor of the Order of Preachers'. These characterisations of Eckhart continue to frame the debate – in other words, his connection with the German philosophical and mystical tradition, his status as a University of Paris master and Scriptural exegete, and his role as a theologian and vernacular preacher for the Dominican Order.enMedieval philosophersModern philosophyEckhart, Meister, -1327Heidegger, Martin, 1889-1976Book Chapter2014-04-23https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ie/
