Literary and philosophical scholars have long anticipated the publication of a comprehensive critical edition of Schleiermacher's Lectures on Hermeneutics and Criticism (18051833) based on his manuscripts and various lecture transcripts performed by students. This new volume specifically makes available for the first time the transcript of the 1819 lecture undertaken by Schleiermacher's beloved student and subsequent literary executor, Ludwig Jonas, as well as Braune's transcript of a lecture from 1826. In the latter, Schleiermacher addresses the issue of criticism from philological and other perspectives.
