Berlin-based theologian and philosopher Friedrich Schleiermacher (17681834) had a broad network and corresponded extensively. This volume contains letters from and to Schleiermacher from 1819 and 1820. In Berlin and Prussia, this was a period in which the state increasingly repressed liberal powers. Schleiermacher advocated vehemently, tactically, and cleverly for the freedom of scholarship and the church.
