"This reader of texts from the key 19th century religious scholar Ferdinand Christian Baur (1792-1860) brings together, for the first time, a selection of texts in English translation, from across Baur's wide range of exegetical, historical, philosophical and theological expertise. In these excerpts, readers gain a comprehensive overview of Baur's output and his remarkable role in the shaping of modern scholarly discourse in his fields. The carefully chose extracts display a remarkably coherent intellectual vision, developed through detailed scholarly research across a wide range of areas. Readers are introduced to Baur's bold and controversial historical hypotheses and encounter the different intellectual and stylistic registers he used, from the purely scholarly to the sharply polemical. Readers will also see how Baur was instrumental in some of the most fundamental intellectual paradigm shifts of the 19th century, including the radical historicisation of Christian theology and its exposure to major philosophical innovations, in particular in connection with German Idealism. The Reader begins with a full scholarly introduction, written by the editors, and all the selected texts are fully annotated."--
