Many scholars believe that Friedrich Schleiermacher relegates the
doctrine of the Trinity to an appendix at the end of his magnum
opus, The Christian Faith (1830/31); his alleged disregard for the
Trinity is the supposed death knell for serious consideration of
his work within the history of Christian thought. This volume
argues that Schleiermacher not only calls for the doctrine's
revitalization, but also makes it the centrepiece of Protestant
Christianity. Following Schleiermacher's own thought experiment,
Poe presents his doctrine of God in reverse order of its original
presentation. Her examination centres on the Trinity, treating it
as the keystone of the entire work, while analysing the divine
attributes: love and wisdom, justice and holiness, eternity,
omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence. When viewed from the
standpoint of the conclusion, the Trinitarian shape of
Schleiermacher's theology comes to the fore. What emerges is a
middle way between merely economic Trinitarianism and a
full-fledged development of immanent Trinitarianism, examining
divine personhood and the union of the divine with humanity. The
central thesis of this work runs boldly counter to the prevailing
academic account of Schleiermacher's doctrine of the Trinity, and
offers an innovative and constructive reading. Readers will be
privy to a fresh look at Schleiermacher's doctrine of God and its
importance for contemporary theology.
