Summary: | This edition shows the problems associated with Tillich’s habilitation in Halle (1914- 16), and provides details of his subsequent “Umhabilitierungen” (transfers of habilitation) from Halle to Berlin and Marburg. Tillich had been obliged to write his habilitation thesis on supernaturalism as a historical study, but he wrote it as a purely logical and dialectical work from the standpoint of Schelling’s philosophy of identity. That was the conclusion of the referees of his thesis (Kattenbusch, Loofs, Lütgert). But Lütgert’s argument helped in getting the work accepted. Tillich’s anti-supernaturalism is reflected in his correspondence with E. Hirsch. In January 1919, Tillich was allowed to change from Halle to Berlin (“because of economic reasons”). Another “Umhabilitierung”, this time to Marburg, was made in 1924 although Tillich would have preferred to stay in Berlin. |
