''Christianity and the New Idealism: A Study in the Religious Philosophy of Today'' is a book written by Rudolf Eucken, a German philosopher and recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1908. In this book, Eucken explores the relationship between Christianity and the philosophical movement known as Idealism, which was popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Eucken argues that Christianity and Idealism share many commonalities, including a focus on the spiritual realm, the belief in the unity of all things, and a rejection of materialism. He also examines the ways in which Christianity can benefit from the insights of Idealism, and vice versa. Throughout the book, Eucken draws on examples from the Bible and from the works of prominent Idealist thinkers such as Friedrich Nietzsche and Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. He also discusses the challenges that arise when attempting to reconcile Christian beliefs with Idealist philosophy. Overall, ''Christianity and the New Idealism'' offers a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between religion and philosophy, and provides insights into how these two seemingly disparate fields can inform and enrich one another.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
