Ueber die Religion - (Paperback or Softback)

Ueber die Religion: Reden an die Gebildeten unter ihren Verächtern, or "On Religion: Speeches to Its Cultured Despisers", is a seminal work by Friedrich Schleiermacher, originally published in 1799. This is the dritte Ausgabe (third edition), published in 1821. In this series of addresses, Schleiermacher seeks to articulate the essence of religion to an educated audience skeptical of its value. He argues that religion is not primarily a matter of dogma, morality, or metaphysics, but rather a unique sense and taste for the infinite. Schleiermacher explores the subjective experience of piety, emphasizing feeling and intuition as the foundation of religious life. His work marked a significant shift in theological thought, influencing subsequent generations of theologians and philosophers and remains a cornerstone of modern theology.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
