Beskrivning

This volume provides a comprehensive account of Friedrich Schleiermacher’s philosophy of religion. The contributors cover the historical context of Schleiermacher’s work, specific aspects of his philosophy of religion, and the ways that his work can contribute to contemporary debates.Friedrich Schleiermacher is considered one of the outstanding representatives of 19th‑century Protestant theology. This volume brings together scholars from both continental and analytic traditions to explore Schleiermacher’s preeminent role in post‑Kantian philosophy of religion. The chapters are divided into three thematic sections. The first section situates Schleiermacher in the context of the 18th- and 19th‑century philosophy of religion. These chapters analyze his relation to thinkers such as Kant, Fichte, Hegel, Schelling, and also to Kierkegaard and Heidegger, as well as to prominent theologians in the Protestant and Catholic traditions. The second section explores different aspects of Schleiermacher’s philosophy of religion such as absolute dependence or religious feeling. Finally, the third section addresses how Schleiermacher’s insights can contribute to contemporary philosophy of religion. These chapters address current debates, particularly on religious experience, feminism, and philosophy of emotions.Friedrich Schleiermacher’s Philosophy of Religion will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working in philosophy of religion, history of philosophy, and 19th‑century religious thought.

"In the volume, Friedrich Schleiermacher’s Philosophy of Religion: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives, leading scholars from both sides of the Atlantic explore historical, philosophical, and conceptual facets of Schleiermacher’s thought to claim Schleiermacher as relevant interlocutor to contemporary discussions in theology and philosophy. This book underscores the importance of Friedrich Schleiermacher as a theorist of religion."Christine Helmer, Peter B. Ritzma Professor of Humanities, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, USA"This volume represents the best of the New Schleiermacher Research, which is fueled by the new critical edition of Schleiermacher’s works published by De Gruyter (Friedrich Schleiermacher: Kritische Gesamtausgabe). The contributors are all leading scholars in Schleiermacher-Studies and in the Philosophy of Religion more generally. As promised in the subtitle (“Contemporary Perspectives”), it corrects older, tired assumptions about Schleiermacher as it also stakes out new territory—for instance, Schleiermacher’s relevance to recent cognitivist theories in the philosophy of emotion. Those new perspectives are also at work in the “historical” and “conceptual” sections of the book. Every chapter is fresh, clear, and insightful. Schleiermacher scholars will learn something new; philosophers of religion will be reminded of how influential Schleiermacher continues to be and how unreliable standard interpretations of him have been; and non-specialists will find substantive, interesting, and trustworthy portals into difficult topics. Lang and Viertbauer have organized an impressive collection of essays that together will prove indispensable to the field."Julia A. Lamm, Professor of Theology and Religious Studies, Georgetown University, USA
