Lauster, Joerg (2023): Jacobi and the German Protestant Tradition. In: Hampton, Alexander J.B. (ed.) : Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi and the ends of the enlightenment : religion, philosophy, and reason at the crux of modernity. New York: Cambridge University Press. pp. 139-152

Abstract

Jacobi’s central role in the Spinoza controversy opened the eyes of the young Schleiermacher and shaped his development as a theological thinker. Probably even more influential, however, was Jacobi’s philosophical concept of intuition as a source of the evidence of God, which this chapter explores both for Schleiermacher and Rudolf Otto.
