Description
Summary:Friedrich Heiler, the “High Church” and the “völkisch” movement. – The term “people” is not by nature a key word in the work of the religious scholar and theologian Friedrich Heiler (1892–1967). In his book “Gebet” (Prayer) and in the other major works of the 1920s, it is encountered rather casually. The forced confrontation with it is all the more important as the term was highly politicised in the early 1930s. A thematic issue of the journal “Hochkirche” on the subject of “Church and People” (July/August 1933) shows the inner tensions to which the High Church movement was exposed. Heiler’s attempt to preserve the concept as a genuinely theological term was, on the one hand, doomed to failure in the short term, but on the other hand contributed to the movement’s ability to endure and survive.
