This is the first comprehensive study in English of Bruno Bauer, a leading philosopher of the 1840s. Inspired by the philosophy of Hegel, Bauer led an intellectual revolution that influenced Marx and shaped modern secular humanism. In the process he offered a republican alternative to liberalism and socialism, criticized religious and political conservatism and set out the terms for the development of modern mass and industrial society.

The period from 1780 to 1850 witnessed an unprecedented explosion of philosophical creativity in the German territories. In the thinking of Kant, Schiller, Fichte, Hegel, and the Hegelian school, new theories of freedom and emancipation, new conceptions of culture, society, and politics, arose in rapid succession. The members of the Hegelian school, forming around Hegel in Berlin and most active in the 1830’s and 1840’s, are often depicted as mere epigones, whose writings are at best of historical interest. In Politics, Religion, and Art: Hegelian Debates, Douglas Moggach moves the discussion past the Cold War–era dogmas that viewed the Hegelians as proto-Marxists and establishes their importance as innovators in the fields of theology, aesthetics, and ethics and as creative contributors to foundational debates about modernity, state, and society.

Dieses Buch ist eine umfassende Studie über das Werk von Bruno Bauer im Vormärz. Inspiriert durch Hegels Philosophie führte Bauer eine intellektuelle Revolution an, die Marx beeinflußte und den modernen säkularen Humanismus formte. Bauer bot eine republikanische Alternative zum Liberalismus und Sozialismus an, kritisierte den religiösen und politischen Konservatismus und erforschte die Entstehung der modernen Massengesellschaft. Ebenso befaßt sich dieses Buch auf der Basis intensiver Archivforschung mit den problematischen Aspekten von Bauers Kritik an der Modernität und vor allem mit seinem Antisemitismus.
