Paul Tillich
Topics
What Tillich presents in his lecture under the traditional notion of dogmatics can be classified as philosophical theology. It is centred on Christ as the "breakthrough of complete and perfect revelation". The Prolegomena are followed by the doctrine of creation and the doctrine of salvation. The doctrine of the consummation of the world is not completed.
The edition is a complete revision of the text published by Werner Schüßler in 1986 under the title "Marburg dogmatics".
This volume contains the previously unpublished manuscripts of the lectures Philosophy of History and Social Pedagogy which the theologian and philosopher Paul Tillich delivered at the University of Frankfurt am Main in the Winter Semester 1929/30 in his capacity as Professor of Philosophy and Sociology, together with a record of the lecture Philosophy of History. In both lectures, Tillich develops a philosophy of encounter. With this, he reveals a new relationship of time and history, and also of the I-You relationship and of education.
This volume contains hitherto unknown lectures held by the Protestant philosopher and theologian Paul Tillich (1886–1965) during the first years of his exile at several universities. The lectures are on the Philosophy of Religion (1934), Introduction into Existential Philosophy (1934) and the Doctrine of Man (1934–35). They document the difficult attempt of a German scholar to explain his thought, which was rooted in the philosophy of German idealism, to an American academic audience.
Relatively little has previously been known about Paul Tillich’s teaching activities as Professor of Philosophy and Sociology at the University of Frankfurt (1929–1933). This volume of the new edition of Tillich’s Collected Works includes texts drawn from Tillich’s legacy, including the following lectures he gave between 1930 and the beginning of 1933: 1. Philosophy of religion; 2. The evolution of philosophy from late antiquity until the Renaissance; 3. Classical philosophy; 4. The history of philosophical ethics; and 5. Fundamental questions in systematic philosophy. In these lectures, Tillich inquires about life’s aporia, and reflects philosophically about their implications.
Paul Tillich first presented his lecture series “Advanced Problems of Systematic Theology” between 1936 and 1938 at the Union Theological Seminary in New York and later repeated it in different variations on several occasions. We can regard these lectures as the “original version” of his “systematic theology” of 1951–1963, from which it differs in multiple respects.
This volume contains previously unpublished manuscripts of the four lectures Paul Tillich delivered as Professor of Religion in the Humanities Department of the Technical University of Dresden in 1925–27. Lecture topics include: religion and art, the intellectual history of Protestant theology, the intellectual history of New Testament religion, and the Old Testament.
This volume presents all of the known reviews that Paul Tillich published between 1911 and 1955 in one critical edition. It thus provides access not just to little known texts for the first time but also to Tillich as a reviewer, opening up a perspective on his oeuvre that has been largely overlooked so far.
