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 in 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 re-examines Schleiermacher's thought with an eye on the contemporary divide between theology and religious studies.
