A renewed focus on the role of interpersonal relationships in the
cultivation of religious sensibilities is emerging in the study of
religion. Matthew Ryan Robinson addresses this question in his
study of Friedrich Schleiermacher's notion of "free sociability".
In Schleiermacher's ethics, the human person is formed in and
consists of intimate, tightly interconnecting relationships with
others. Schleiermacher describes this sociability as a natural
tendency prompted by experiences of physical and existential
limitation that lead one to look to others to complete one's
experience. But this experience of incompleteness and orientation
to "the completion of humanity" also constitute the fundamental
structure of religion in Schleiermacher's theory of religion as
orientation to "the universe and the relationship of humanity to
it." Thus, Schleiermacher not only presents sociability as basic to
human nature, but also as inherently religious - and, potentially,
redemptive. What making such a claim means and the implications it
raises are central considerations of this study of Schleiermacher's
ethics, theory of religion and ecclesiology.
