About this eBook

Author Müller, F. Max (Friedrich Max), 1823-1900
Title The Silesian Horseherd - Questions of the Hour
Summary "The Silesian Horseherd - Questions of the Hour" by F. Max Müller is an intellectual work combining philosophy and theology, written in the late 19th century. The text features a correspondence between Müller and an anonymous correspondent, the "Horseherd," whose reflections on religion and philosophy challenge conventional beliefs. The book explores complex ideas about Christianity's historical development, the nature of divine thought and Logos, and the interplay between faith and reason. At the start of the volume, Müller introduces the background of his correspondence with the Horseherd, emphasizing the shared human quest for understanding and meaning. The Horseherd's letter expresses a deep skepticism toward traditional religious doctrines, questioning the validity of Christian beliefs in light of modern philosophical perspectives. Through this exchange, Müller sets the stage for an exploration of the relationship between language, thought, and spirituality, revealing both the familiarity of human concerns across different contexts and the intellectual tensions that arise in discussing faith and reason. The opening serves as an invitation into a dialogue that promises to engage with profound theological and philosophical questions. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
