Die Erscheinungsform des Christentums

Working from the thesis that the essence of Christianity cannot be understood without its historical and cultural manifestations, the author proceeds to examine the interrelationships between Protestant theology and aesthetics in their threefold significance as theories of the sensory perception, of beauty and art. Using Herder, Wackenroder and De Wette as exemplars, he sketches a modernisation programme for the theory of culture and of religion that places culture within an embracing world of meaning and the Christian religion within a concrete horizon of experience.
