Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Friedrich Schleiermacher reveals his philosophical attitudes to
religion, and mounts a defense and justification for faith as an
expression of human nature. At the time Schleiermacher authored
this passionate and detailed account of faith, he was all too aware
of the changes in the scholarly atmosphere of late 18th century
Germany. The traditional, theological schools of thought were being
rapidly supplanted by philosophy and the natural sciences, as
discoveries multiplied and the earliest incarnation of modernity
commenced to assume shape. The growing animosity among academics is
reflected in the subtitle; indeed, this rise of such sophisticated
anti-religious discourse worried the author. This work is divided
into five speeches. The first is concerned with defending religion
against common detraction. As a learned man who had also struggled
with aspects of his Protestant faith, Schleiermacher is in a good
position to counter the arguments levied against religious belief.
