Das Wessobrunner Gebet (Wessobrunn Prayer), Work and Translations

Modern translation work by Armaan Seth Author Notes: Thank you for dedicating your time to reading my translations and my work on Das Wessobrunner Gebet, or the Wessobrunner prayer. I really enjoyed this piece as it struck so powerfully with me. As an 8th-grade student in Gainesville, FL, I spent many hours trying just to extract the text by hand. I usually enjoy working in ethics, law, and moral philosophy. As a debater, I used to wonder what the best way was to express my passion for the subjects. I chose literature might be the route. I started with research, reading (a lot!), writing, speeches that I wish I had given, and then I put my heart in soul into writing a novel. This Novel was dedicated to helping members of society achieve personal growth with relatable connections about moral philosophy(ethics) and law. I called it "Moral," and it's something I am proud of today. Besides writing a Moral, I wanted to achieve a goal of translating a work of literature and publishing it to bring it to be notice of many. I wanted to choose a piece so unrecognized that it could get the recognition it deserves. This is how I landed at Das Wessobrunner Gebet.
