The book's three sections include illuminating sketches of Schleiermacher's relationship to contemporaries, his work as a public theologian, and the formation and impact of his two most famous books, On Religion and The Christian Faith.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview of the hardback: 'Crouter's book is important for tracing the evolution of Schleiermacher's thought. … Crouter has long harboured a wish to write a biography of Schleiermacher, and his knowledge of the factors that shaped his life and thought make this book a valuable guide to understanding him.' Church Times\u003cbr\u003e'Crouter's essays are much more than occasional papers. Each is thoroughly researched and densely noted; Crouter's command of both the primary and secondary Schleiermacher literature is prodigious. Yet, for all their scholarly heft and discipline, these essays are charming, witty and graceful.'
