Schleiermacher viewed religion and individuality as having an interior referential relationship. This is a major element in the early Romantic phase of his work. But in his later work as well, he revisited, deepened, and accentuated this multidimensional theme in his philosophical ethics, read today as cultural theory. In fact, there is a deep continuity between these two historical phases of his work despite different nuances of emphasis.
