Ernst Troeltsch and Liberal Theology: Religion and Cultural Synthesis in Wilhelmine Germany - Hardcover

by Mark D. Chapman (Author)

This book assesses the German liberal theological tradition in the early years of the twentieth century, concentrating in particular on the work of Ernst Troeltsch. It locates theology in its social and political context, and seeks to understand the period on its own terms and not through the distorting lens of the First World War.
