Schleiermacher, the Study of Religion, and the Future of Theology - A Transatlantic Dialogue

This volume documents a significant meeting in the history of Schleiermacher studies at which leading scholars from Europe and North America gathered to probe key features of Schleiermacher´s theological and philosophical program in light of its contested place in the study of religion. Offering fresh interpretations of Schleiermacher´s theory of religion, revisionary dogmatics, and hermeneutics of culture, the book critically reexamines Schleiermacher´s thought with an eye on the contemporary divide between theology and religious studies.
