Introduction to the Reader's Guide

Each section of the Reader's Guide contains links to:

  • the paragraph headings in H.R. Mackintosh and J.S. Stewart's English translation of Friedrich Schleiermacher's Christian Faith, 2nd ed. (1830-1831), and
  • the corresponding section in George Cross's The Theology of Schleiermacher: A Condensed Presentation of His Chief Work, "The Christian Faith" (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1911), which is in the public domain and is here slightly modified in places from the version posted online. For the other parts of Cross's book, see the Preface, the Historical Introduction, the Estimate of Schleiermacher's influence, and the Reference Works.
  • Cross's book is not the definitive work on Christian Faith, and it certainly was not the last word. But it is in the public domain. This, it is presented here with the expectation that it should provoke discussion and response. Send concerns and comments to the contact email address.
