Extract

Troeltsch is reported to have said, during the centenary celebration of the publication of Schleiermacher's chief works, that “Schleiermacher's program remains the great program of all scientific theology and only needs working out, not the substitution of new methods.” My purpose is to discuss, not the theology or the sociology of Troeltsch as the subject of this paper may imply, nor the theology of Schleiermacher, but Troeltsch's pronouncement on Schleiermacher's program and method of all scientific theology.
