Friedrich Daniel Ernst Schleiermacher was a German theologian and philosopher renowned for his attempt to reconcile the critiques of the Enlightenment with traditional Protestant orthodoxy. His work also laid foundational elements for the modern field of hermeneutics, significantly influencing the evolution of Higher Criticism. Celebrated as the "Father of Modern Protestant Theology," he is considered an early leader in liberal Christianity, whose profound impact shaped subsequent Christian thought and became a point of departure for later theological movements.
