Schleiermacher in Plain English (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

"It may be an overstatement, but I can think of no figure in recent theological memory misunderstood more severely than Friedrich D. E. Schleiermacher... But I am here to say he is not who you think he is. Schleiermacher is not the 'villain' of modern theology. That old, marred image is in dire need of revision." (From the author's introduction.)

The fourth book in Stephen D. Morrison's "Plain English Series" aims to reassess Schleiermacher's complicated legacy. He argues that Schleiermacher is far too significant to ignore and it will only be to our detriment if we allow poor caricatures of his work to persist. Morrison also adds his voice to the growing consensus among scholars that an essential harmony can exist between Barth and Schleiermacher.

Drawing from a multitude of primary and secondary sources, Morrison focuses on coming to a new understanding of Schleiermacher's theological masterpiece, Christian Faith. With clarity and accessibility, Morrison draws you in to reconsider Schleiermacher's legacy. Perhaps Schleiermacher is not the "villain" of modern theology after all.

Autorenporträt

Stephen D Morrison (S. D. Morrison) is an American, ecumenical writer and theologian with a passion for the good news of Jesus Christ. Stephen is the author of several books on subjects such as the problem of evil, the rapture theory, and the gospel of grace. With a theologically inspired yet approachable writing style, Stephen works to proclaim the gospel ever afresh as good news of great joy.

Stephen is an amateur theologian, the self-taught student of a rigorous reading regiment with includes extensive studies in the theology of Karl Barth, Thomas F Torrance, and Jürgen Moltmann. These are his primary theological influences, with the addition of popular writers such as Robert F Capon, C Baxter Kruger, and Brennan Manning.
