The Beneficial Tension between Philosophy, Religion and History. Ernst Troeltsch as Reader of Otto · Ernst Troeltsch uses critical comparison with Otto’s research as an occasion for a schematic systematization of his theory of religion. It has three levels. The first looks for the epistemological status of religion. The second describes the constitutive function that religion performs in view of the construction of individual personality. The third analyzes religion in its actual existence, in its historical embodiments. According to Troeltsch, Rudolf Otto confirms the thesis that the philosophy of religion and modern theology are, in their conceptual and scientific structure, very close to spiritualism and mysticism.

Abstract
The Beneficial Tension between Philosophy, Religion and History. Ernst Troeltsch as Reader of Otto · Ernst Troeltsch uses critical comparison with Otto’s research as an occasion for a schematic systematization of his theory of religion. It has three levels. The first looks for the epistemological status of religion. The second describes the constitutive function that religion performs in view of the construction of individual personality. The third analyzes religion in its actual existence, in its historical embodiments. According to Troeltsch, Rudolf Otto confirms the thesis that the philosophy of religion and modern theology are, in their conceptual and scientific structure, very close to spiritualism and mysticism.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione
