Abstract

Paul Tillich often described Schelling as his teacher in philosophy and theology. He viewed Schelling as the philosopher of Romanticism, of identity, freedom, existence, and religion. In his course at Harvard on “German Classical Philosophy” (1955-60), Tillich gave an abridged version of his 1912 dissertation on “Mysticism and Guilt-Consciousness in Schelling’s Philosophical Development”. It was Tillich’s conviction that the subject of his dissertation, with its synthesis of identity and contradiction, were relevant to contemporary theology and dialogue with Asian religions.
