Friedrich Schleiermacher in Halle 1804-1807

It was in Halle, Germany, that Schleiermacher laid the groundwork for his theological and philosophical system, which was permanently politicized in the wake of the Prussian defeat of 1806. This study uses the most up-to-date research to offer for the first time a succinct overview of Schleiermacher’s Halle period, and also includes an evaluation of unpublished lecture transcripts from the ongoing editorial work on his Philosophical Ethics.
