| Summary: | In early nineteenth-century Berlin Hegel, Schopenhauer, and Schleiermacher held their lectures in the Humbolt university. The speculative Lutheran Swabian and the pious Reformed Pommeranian duelled over the relationship between faith and reason, while the lugubrious Hanseatic Schopenhauer developed his deeply anti-Christian world of Will and Representation. And in a sense, these battles continued into the twentieth century. The impact of Schleiermacher upon both the Barthians and the Liberal Protestants needs no mention. Hegel's influence can be felt in many of the specific legacies of his nineteenth-century pupils such as Bauer, Feuerbach, Marx, Baur, but also in the parameters and agenda of twentieth-century thinkers. |
