Publisher's Note Schleiermacher's On Religion is a central document of early German Romanticism and had a significant impact on nineteenth-century thinking about religion. Richard Crouter has produced a new fluent translation of the original edition (1799) and has provided detailed annotation and a substantial introduction.
