Die Aufklärung der Aufklärung: Lessing und die Herausforderung des Christentums
2023
Overview
According to Kerber's Lessing, both sides of the debate were in error because neither had so much as considered the true issues at stake in the Christian notion of revelation. In his initial remarks on the content of the fragments, Lessing notoriously claimed that his age had seen neither a true defender nor a true critic of Christianity-not even the anonymous author of the fragments-and that he had decided to publish the fragments with the aim of provoking such individuals to step into the public ring. [...]it transparently presents both Lessing's diagnosis of the religious polemics of his day as well as his authorial goal during this period: not to take a position on the truth of Christianity, but to restore the full force of its religious claims within the public religious debate.
