Albert Schweitzer

    January 14, 1875 – September 4, 1965

    Albert Schweitzer, a theologian, musician, philosopher, and physician, profoundly influenced modern thought. His theological work challenged prevailing views of Jesus, presenting him as an apocalyptic figure. Schweitzer's enduring legacy is his philosophy of "reverence for life," a guiding principle that underpinned his humanitarian efforts. This philosophy famously manifested in his lifelong dedication to sustaining the hospital he founded in Gabon, embodying his commitment to service.

      Die Auseinandersetzung mit nichtchristlichen Kulturen und Religionen beleuchtet die Einzigartigkeit des Christentums sowie die Vielfalt ethischer Konzepte. Albert Schweitzers Überlegungen zu diesen Themen sind nach wie vor relevant und werden in zwei bedeutenden Beiträgen erörtert. Ulrich Neuenschwander, ein Experte für Schweitzers Werk, bietet eine verständliche Einführung in das Leben und die Philosophie des Religionsdenkers, wodurch dessen Einfluss auf die heutige Diskussion verdeutlicht wird.

      Die Ehrfurcht vor dem Leben

      Grundtexte aus fünf Jahrzehnten

      In einer Zeit, die zunehmend von Kriegen, Umweltzerstörungen und Hungersnöten bedroht ist, hat Albert Schweitzers Ethik der Ehrfurcht vor dem Leben nichts an Aktualität eingebüßt. Das Prinzip der Ehrfurcht vor dem Leben ist für ihn an keine bestimmte Religion oder Philosophie gebunden. Es ist die elementare und überlebensnotwendige Richtlinie, die allem Denken und Handeln zugrundeliegen soll. Dieses Buch vereinigt Schlüsseltexte Schweitzers aus den Jahren 1919 bis 1963, die die zentralen Linien seiner Ethik philosophisch und theologisch herausarbeiten.
