Quirinus Kuhlmann (also: Culmannus, Kühlmann, Kuhlman; 26 February 1651 – 4 October 1689)[1] was a German Baroque poet and mystic. Kuhlmann insisted upon the importance of the events of his life as confirmation of his divine mission.[2]
Known for his travels throughout Europe, Kuhlmann spent the last years of his life in Russia, where he was executed because he was considered theologically and politically dangerous.
