~ENG~This work by the then young Albert Schweitzer, published at the beginning of the 20th century, has since become a theological classic. It wiped clean the slate of 150 years’ historical-critical research and cleared the way for a new start. It made the history of Life-of-Jesus Research – the epochal “”truthfulness of protestant Christianity”” – so transparent that in this dialogue, the personal uniqueness of the individual characters comes to the fore just as much as their factual meaning.


English summary: This work by the then young Albert Schweitzer, published at the beginning of the 20th century, has since become a theological classic. It wiped clean the slate of 150 years’ historical-critical research and cleared the way for a new start. It made the history of Life-of-Jesus Research – the epochal “truthfulness of protestant Christianity” – so transparent that in this dialogue, the personal uniqueness of the individual characters comes to the fore just as much as their factual meaning. German description: Am Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts erschienen, ist dieses Werk des jungen Albert Schweitzer inzwischen zu einem theologischen Klassiker geworden. Es zog den Schlussstrich unter 150 Jahre historisch-kritischer Forschung und setzte einen neuen Anfang. Es macht die Geschichte der Leben-Jesu-Forschung, dieser epochalen “Wahrhaftigkeitstat des protestantischen Christentums”, so durchsichtig, dass die personliche Eigenart der Mitwirkenden ebenso zur Geltung kommt wie ihre sachliche Bedeutung in diesem Gesprach.
