Download or read book History of German Theology in the Nineteenth Century Classic Reprint written by F. Lichtenberger and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 684 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of German Theology in the Nineteenth Century N the Nineteenth Century, as in the Sixteenth, Germany has been the living heart and head of Protestant and progressive theology. In other countries the Christian tradition has been resolutely preserved and somewhat puri fied and spiritualized, yet the first attitude of its represem tatives has been generally that of suspicion and distrust, and even in its greatest organization, of hostility and hatred towards the new theological aspiration and thought. But in the land of Luther and Melanchthon, and even more than in the age of the Reformation, the religious spirit from the very outset of the century realized its Christianfreedom and put forth its essential power. In consequence, the development of theology and the evolution of religious thought in Germany have largely responded to the needs of the time, and have presented a spectacle of progress Which, When Viewed as a whole, has had no rival or approach elsewhere. The vast learning, the indefatigable research, and the intellectual energy of the German theologians have become proverbial, While their daring originality and speculative ardour have recalled the most fertile century in the dogmatic development of the Church, and have alternately dismayed, perplexed, and subdued the more sober thinkers of the other divisions of Christendom. Taken all in all, the German theological development as exhibited in its profound, penetrating, and fertile results, must be considered to be one of the most distinctive, influential, and characteristic elements in the spiritual work of the century.

Download or read book The Reformation in Germany Classic Reprint written by Henry C. Vedder and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reformation in Germany Within a generation a new way of looking at all history has become common among students of the past, a recognition of the fundamental importance of the economic basis of society, and the influence of economic changes on all human institutions and movements. The economic interpretation of history has not yet been applied to the period of the Reformation, and that fact is the chief justification of this attempt to retell a story that has been so often told, yet told inadequately. That the great religious struggle of the sixteenth century was only a phase of the social revolution then going on in Europe and effecting a transforma tion of all its institutions, that momentous economic changes were the underlying cause of political and religious movements, are ideas for which the reader will look in vain in books on the Reformation accessible to him. But these ideas are now accepted by most historical students, and in the light of them all the history of the past is undergoing a reinterpretation. The external events of the Reformation have been told before with substantial accuracy; what is now needed is illumination of the facts by the light of this new knowledge. By itself this would be a sufficient justification for the writing of a new book on this old subject. But there are other reasons. For more than a generation, Europe has been swept with lighted candle to find the smallest fragment of document, or one overlooked fact, that could shed light on the Reformation period. The result has been the accumulation of an enormous mass of material, much of it trivial and jejune - mountains of chaff, to speak plainly, with here and there a kernel of precious wheat. Little, relatively, has been done in the way of comparing, sifting, unifying this mass of useful and useless information. Monographs have multiplied, it is true, until every character of the age, however little noteworthy, has his biography; and every event, however obscure, has its separate doc umented story. Has not the time come for the telling of the larger story once more, in the light of this newly discovered body of fact?

This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Treitschke's History of Germany in the Nineteenth Century, Vol. 7 The situation had indeed become desperate when an ardent patriot like Emanuel Geibel, the poet who wrote, and doubtless believed, that through the German character the world will be made whole, had now to admit that Germany is sick unto death, and must be blooded. Long before this a moderate man like the historian Niebuhr, while landing the past utility of unlimited monarchy, had declared his conviction that it was no longer sustained by popular faith, or conformable to the conditions and needs of the time. He was only one of many contemporary representatives of learning who took sides, for or against, on the burning question of constitutional reform. It was at this time that the German professor made his first systematic appearance in political controversy. The constitutional movement and the first schleswig-holstein dispute of 1846-50 together drew many occupants of chairs of history in particular into public life, and from that time forward until the present day the German professor has continued to divide his interest between the study and the political arena. The Frankfort National Assembly of 1848-9 was so liberally leavened by academic teachers that it has ever since been known as the Professors' Parliament. The national unity movement in all its later phases owed much to these men; and they were largely represented in the early Diets of the new Empire.

Download or read book The German Church on the American Frontier written by Carl Edward Schneider and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The German Church on the American Frontier: A Study in the Rise of Religion Among the Germans of the West, Based on the History of the Evangelischer Kirchenverein Des Westens (Evangelical Church Society of the West), 1840-1866 The story of the religious origins among the Germans in the West, however, is not so well known. Historical inter est has mainly centered about the German Churches in the East. Many of these originated in the Colonial Period and effected their accommodations to the life and mores of the New World, while participating at the same time in the rise Of the new republic on American soil. The story of the Ger man settlement in the East, therefore, belongs intrinsically to the history of the American people. It Should become increasingly apparent, however, that the German immi gration of the nineteenth century was in many respects as significant for the later development of the West as the pre-revolutionary immigration was important for the East. The varied socio-historical aspects of the Western devel opment Should be sufficiently attractive to invite serious study. Conditions prevailing in both Germany and America at the time favored the rise Of a Germanism which in the isolation of the Western frontier frequently sought to fur ther its cause independent not only of American influences but also of contacts with the Older German culture of the East. We are here dealing with the rise of a unique Ger man civilization which, sometimes divided against itself, did not begin to integrate with American culture until the national crisis of the Civil War.

Download or read book The Catholic Revival of the Nineteenth Century written by George Worley and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Catholic Revival of the Nineteenth Century: A Brief Popular Account of Its Origin, History, Literature, and General Results; Six Lectures At the request of the author of the following lectures I have gladly consented to write a short introduction to them. I have been greatly struck by the thoughtful attention with which my friend of many years' standing has followed the fortunes of the religious movement about which he writes, amid the constant occupations of a commercial life. He has evidently not only read the principal books upon the Oxford Movement, but he has pondered over them, and, after mastering them, has endeavoured to utilize the information so acquired for the benefit of those possessed of less knowledge and leisure than himself. The lectures were delivered substantially as they now appear to large gatherings of Sunday-school teachers. Mr. Worley became acquainted with them through his own active labours as a Sunday-school teacher, and in his endeavours to promote lectures and other instrumentalities by which those self-denying Church workers might be assisted to fulfil more efficiently the important duty which they had undertaken.

Download or read book Protestants Catholics and Jews in Germany 1800 1914 written by Helmut Walser Smith and published by Berg Publishers. This book was released on 2001 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the course of the nineteenth century, the boundaries that divided Protestants, Catholics and Jews in Germany were redrawn, challenged, rendered porous and built anew. This book addresses this redrawing. It considers the relations of three religious groups-Protestants, Catholics, and Jews-and asks how, by dint of their interaction, they affected one another. Previously, historians have written about these communities as if they lived in isolation. Yet these groups coexisted in common space, and interacted in complex ways. This is the first book that brings these separate stories together and lays the foundation for a new kind of religious history that foregrounds both cooperation and conflict across the religious divides. The authors analyze the influences that shaped religious coexistence and they place the valences of co-operation and conflict in deep social and cultural contexts. The result is a significantly altered understanding of the emergence of modern religious communities as well as new insights into the origins of the German tragedy, which involved the breakdown of religious coexistence.

This book was released on 2015-02-05 with total page 896 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of German Philosophy in the Nineteenth Century is the first collective critical study of this important period in intellectual history. The volume is divided into four parts. The first part explores individual philosophers, including Fichte, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Marx, and Nietzsche, amongst other great thinkers of the period. The second addresses key philosophical movements: Idealism, Romanticism, Neo-Kantianism, and Existentialism. The essays in the third part engage with different areas of philosophy that received particular attention at this time, including philosophy of nature, philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, philosophy of history, and hermeneutics. Finally, the contributors turn to discuss central philosophical topics, from skepticism to mat-erialism, from dialectics to ideas of historical and cultural Otherness, and from the reception of antiquity to atheism. Written by a team of leading experts, this Handbook will be an essential resource for anyone working in the area and will lead the direction of future research.
Download or read book Reading Maimonides Philosophy in 19th Century Germany written by George Y. Kohler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-05-03 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the re-discovery of Maimonides’ Guide of the Perplexed by the Wissenschaft des Judentums movement in Germany of the nineteenth and beginning twentieth Germany. Since this movement is inseparably connected with religious reforms that took place at about the same time, it shall be demonstrated how the Reform Movement in Judaism used the Guide for its own agenda of historizing, rationalizing and finally turning Judaism into a philosophical enterprise of ‘ethical monotheism’. The study follows the reception of Maimonidean thought, and the Guide specifically, through the nineteenth century, from the first beginnings of early reformers in 1810 and their reading of Maimonides to the development of a sophisticated reform-theology, based on Maimonides, in the writings of Hermann Cohen more then a hundred years later.
Download or read book The German American Encounter written by Frank Trommler and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2001 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Germans, the largest immigration group in the United States, contributed to the shaping of American society and left their mark on many areas from religion and education to food, farming, political and intellectual life, Americans have been instrumental in shaping German democracy after World War II. Both sides can claim to be part of each other's history, and yet the question arises whether this claim indicates more than a historical interlude in the forming of the Atlantic civilization. In this volume some of the leading historians, social scientists and literary scholars from both sides of the Atlantic have come together to investigate, for the first time in a broad interdisciplinary collaboration, the nexus of these interactions in view of current and future challenges to German-American relations.
Download or read book Teaching New Religious Movements written by David G. Bromley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-05-25 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception around 1970, the study of New Religious Movements (NRMs) has evolved into an established multidisciplinary field. At the same time, both the movements and the scholars who study them have been the subjects of intense controversy. In this volume, a group of senior NRM scholars who have been instrumental in the development of the field will offer pivotal essays that present the basics of NRM scholarship along with guidance for teachers on classroom use. The book is organized topically around subjects that are both central to the study of NRMs and likely to be useful to non-specialists. Part I contains examinations of the definitional boundaries of the area of study, varying disciplinary perspectives on NRMs, unique methodological/ethical problems encountered in the study of NRMs, and the controversies that have confronted scholars studying NRMs and the movements themselves. Part II examines a series of topics central to teaching about NRMs: the larger sociocultural significance of the movements, their distinctive symbolic and organizational features, the interrelated processes of joining and leaving NRMs, the organization of gender roles in NRMs, media and popular culture portrayals of the movements, the occurrence of corruption and abuse within movements, and violence by and against NRMs. Part III provides informational resources for teaching about NRMs, which are particularly important in a field where knowing the biases of sources is crucial. With its interdisciplinary approach, the volume provides comprehensive, accessible information and perspectives on NRMs. It is an invaluable guide for instructors navigating this scholarly minefield.
