About this book

With his appointment as Preacher at the Charité (1796) Friedrich Schleiermacher enters the cultural life of Berlin. For him, an important role is played by sociability, which he theorises with the anonymously published text Versuch einer Theorie des geselligen Betragens (1799) [‘Toward a theory of sociable conduct’]. The other pole of Schleiermacher’s life in Berlin is provided by science and scholarship – from the “Symphilosophy” of his circle of early Romantic friends via participation, for example, in lectures on experimental chemistry, through to theological reflection on his work at the Charité. The volume is the product of a symposium held by the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences, and it presents a picture of this life between scholarship and sociability based on sources newly made available through the Critical Edition of Schleiermacher’s Complete Works.

Reviews

"Innerhalb der monumentalen ‚Kritischen Gesamtausgabe’ Friedrich Scheiermachers stellt die Edition seines Briefwechsels eine besonders entsagungs- und verdienstvolle, in ihrem historiographischen Erschließungspotential kaum hoch genug zu würdigende Leistung dar: In vollendeter editorischer Sorgfalt präsentiert sie mustergültig eingefasste Quellen, deren Reichtum und Fülle auch nur annähernd auszuschöpfen die Foschung auf lange Zeit hin beschäftigen wird."
Albrecht Beutel in: Theologische Literaturzeitung 5/2010

"Students of Schleiermacher's multifaceted thought, cultural historians of Prussia and scholars of early German Romanticism will find much of value in this well-executed work."
Thomas Albert Howard in: The Journal of Ecclesiastical History 3/2010

"Ein gehaltvolles Buch."
