Early German Romanticism sought to respond to a comprehensive sense
of spiritual crisis that characterised the late eighteenth century.
The study demonstrates how the Romantics sought to bring together
the new post-Kantian idealist philosophy with the inheritance of
the realist Platonic-Christian tradition. With idealism they
continued to champion the individual, while from Platonism they
took the notion that all reality, including the self, participated
in absolute being. This insight was expressed, not in the language
of theology or philosophy, but through aesthetics, which recognised
the potentiality of all creation, including artistic creation, to
disclose the divine. In explicating the religious vision of
Romanticism, this study offers a new historical appreciation of the
movement, and furthermore demonstrates its importance for our
understanding of religion today.
