Bøger af Friedrich Schleiermacher

Description:This book is about the meanings of Christmas. It makes for a fine Christmas present--written in popular, poetic style--and is a literary classic. This little dialogue shared by women, men and children on Christmas Eve is the jewel in the crown of Schleiermacher''s theological writings. It features celebrations among close friends in a traditionally decorated home--stories told by four women, doctrinal interpretations offered by four men. All these events are shared in dialogue, accompanied by singing, activities, and expressions of two young children, and exchange of homemade gifts. Beautifully written and full of evocative images, it is in effect a drama, lending itself to being read aloud. For the first time the two original German editions (1806 and 1826) can be handily compared, though without interrupting smooth reading of the final edition from start to finish. It will serve as a brief piece for reflection by students from high school through graduate school.Endorsements:""In this updated translation, we see Schleiermacher''s relational sensibility in vivid color, the characters breathing with joy and life as they each contribute to what amounts to a discourse on Christian love. Tice''s expertise as a translator makes the reading smooth and accessible, and his introduction and critical notes provide helpful references and commentary for readers looking for further depth. This edition is surely to become the standard, placing us in debt to Tice once again.""--Thomas E. Reynolds Emmanuel College, University of Toronto""Schleiermacher''s Christmas Eve is perhaps the best text to use in introducing the great theologian''s thought to students at every level. In it, most of the major themes distinctive to him are presented in an accessible and engaging way. Terrence Tice''s able translation is quite readable, the introduction and notes extremely helpful. To have this gem in print and readably available is itself a cause for celebration.""--Ted VialIliff School of Theology""Schleiermacher''s Christmas Eve Celebration is a lovely contribution to the literature of Christmas and of Christian joy. Terrence N. Tice''s modern rendering of the text makes it available again to contemporary readers, with excellent critical commentary and an insightful introduction that sets the work in the context of Schleiermacher''s life and thought. Tice''s wonderful addition to Schleiermacher''s works in English promises to capture a wide readership for this theologically rich and deeply moving Christmas meditation.""--Christine HelmerNorthwestern UniversityAbout the Contributor(s):Friedrich Schleiermacher (1768-1834) is widely reputed to be the father of modern theology. This means that the results of his intensive historical-critical examinations of Christian Scripture and tradition either have positively influenced or have had to be contended with by a very wide range of thinkersSchleiermacher served as a pastor during his entire adult life. He was cofounder of the University of Berlin, established its famous theology department, and taught both theology and philosophy there.Terrence N. Tice, the translator, is a world-renowned interpreter of Schleiermacher''s life and works. He is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at the University of Michigan and now teaches at Iliff School of Theology in Denver, Colorado. He has already translated numerous works by Schleiermacher. His newly revised editions of several other major works by Schleiermacher are to appear shortly, including a first-time presentation of all three editions (1799, 1806, 1921) of On Religion (Cascade Books).

Diese Ausgabe beinhaltet alle Einleitungen Schleiermachers zu seinen Übersetzungen der Dialoge Platons, außerdem Auszüge aus den Nachschriften der Vorlesungen Schleiermachers über Platon und Sokrates von 1819-1823.Es handelt sich um eigenständige und seinerzeit bahnbrechende Interpretationen zu Aufbau, Form und Datierung der Dialoge, in denen Schleiermacher auch den zusammen mit Friedrich Schlegel entdeckten philosophischen Grund darlegt, warum Platon für die schriftliche Entfaltung seiner Philosophie die literarische Form des Dialogs wählte.

Friedrich Schleiermacher (1768¿1834) hat die Ethik als Theorie der Strukturen und Formen der geschichtlichen Welt konzipiert. Seine Entwürfe dieser ¿Wissenschaft von den Prinzipien der Geschichte¿, die im Zusammenhang mit Vorlesungen ausgearbeitet und erst nach seinem Tod veröffentlicht worden sind, haben für seine Philosophie wie für seine Theologie grundlegende Bedeutung.

Dilthey sah in Schleiermacher den Ästhetiker der Romantik, Croce hielt ihn für den beachtenswertesten in der ersten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Seine Vorlesungen zur Ästhetik sind von grundlegender Bedeutung für die Fortbildung der von Baum-garten begründeten Theorie der Kunst. Die vorliegende Ausgabe beschränkt sich auf die eindeutig von Schleiermachers Hand verfaßten Texte (Grundheft A von 1819, Niederschrift B von 1825). Beigegeben sind die von Jonas edierten Akademievorträge 'Über den Begriff der Kunst'; alle Texte wurden anhand der erhaltenen Handschriften überprüft.

Im philosophisch-theologischen Werk Schleiermachers nehmen die Arbeiten zu ethischen Fragen einen bedeutsamen Platz ein ¿ gleichwohl ist zu seinen Lebzeiten nie ein systematischer Gesamtentwurf zur Ethik im Druck erschienen. Schleiermachers Ethik ist in ihrer Systematik daher erst durch die Veröffentlichung der Manuskripte aus dem Nachlaß bekannt geworden. Das ¿Brouillon zur Ethik¿ von 1805/06 wurde im Zusammenhang mit den Hallenser Vorlesungen zur Sittenlehre verfaßt. Es macht den besonderen Reiz dieses frühen Entwurfs aus, daß er einerseits das Werden der Gedanken noch erkennen läßt, andererseits aber Schleiermachers Konzeption der Ethik als philosophische Grundwissenschaft bereits in allen wesentlichen Zügen vor Augen tritt.

Brandt presents important selections from German theologian Schleiermacher's Christian Ethics, a work that moves beyond formal matters to offer a comprehensive analysis of ethical issues, including what constitutes moral action for individuals in relation to the family, the state, the school, the church, and society. This edition also includes...

The founding text of modern hermeneutics. Written by the philosopher and theologian Friedrich Schleiermacher as a method for the interpretation and textual criticism of the New Testament, it develops ideas about language and the interpretation of texts that are in many respects still unsurpassed and are becoming current in the contemporary philosophy of language. Contrary to the traditional view of Schleiermacher as a theorist of empathetic interpretation, in this text he offers a view of understanding that acknowledges both the structurally and historically determined aspects of language and the need to take account of the activity of the individual subject in the constitution of meaning. This volume offers the text in a new translation by Andrew Bowie, together with related writings on secular hermeneutics and on language, and an introduction that places the texts in the context of Schleiermacher's philosophy as a whole.

Schleiermacher is known to English readers primarily as a theologian and hermeneuticist, but many German scholars have argued that it is in fact his philosophical work in ethics that constitutes his most outstanding intellectual achievement. This 2002 edition also includes a historical and philosophical introduction and notes on further reading.

A classic of modern religious thought, Schleiermacher's On Religion: Speeches to its Cultured Despisers is here presented in Richard Crouter's acclaimed English translation of the 1799 edition, originally published in Cambridge Texts in German Philosophy. Written when its youthful author was deeply involved in German Romanticism and the critique of Kant's moral and religious philosophy, it is a masterly expression of Protestant Christian apologetics of the modern period, which powerfully displays the tensions between the Romantic and Enlightenment accounts of religion. Unlike the revised versions of 1806 and 1821, which modify the language of feeling and intuition and translate the argument into more traditional academic and Christian categories, the 1799 text more fully reveals its original audience's literary and social world. Richard Crouter's introduction places the work in the milieu of early German Romanticism, Kant criticism, the revival of Spinoza and Plato studies, and theories of literary criticism and of the physical sciences, and his fully annotated edition also includes a chronology and notes on further reading.
