                    Tillich</rs>:</salute></opener>
                <p>It is a number of years since we met in <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__831" type="place">Carmel</rs>. <hi rend="g">That</hi> I met you encourages me to
                    send you today a translation of mine which I have just completed.<note type="ea">Liegt nicht vor.</note> It is <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__1407" type="person">Novalis</rs>' <hi rend="u"><rs ref="#tillich__E8B2N8XT" type="work">Die Christenheit oder Europa</rs></hi>.</p>
                <p>This essay seems to me one of the most beautiful pieces of German prose in regard
                    to form as well as to content. It contains a good deal of timely and prophetic
                    wisdom.</p>
                <p>Don't<!-- im Text: <q>D'ont</q> --> you think that <hi rend="u">The Review of
                        Religion</hi> would be an appropriate <sic>magazin</sic> for publication?
                    And furthermore, in case you should like my translation would you be willing to
                    hand it on with a <sic>recommandation</sic>? Do you feel that such a publication
                    would ask for a general short introduction and if you think so would you have
                    any suggestion who would be willing and equipped to write it?</p>
                <p>You can imagine that I am most interested in your reaction since there are not
                    many people in this country who can judge <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__1407" type="person">Novalis</rs> text from a literary as well as from a religious
                    point of view.</p>
                <p>Will you permit me to add one personal note, because this translation may come
                    somewhat unexpectedly to you. In the fall or winter issue of the <hi rend="u">Journal of the History of Ideas</hi> you will find an essay of mine <rs ref="#tillich__DHC64D5W" type="work"><q>The Landscape Garden as a Symbol in
                        Rousseau, Goethe and Flaubert</q></rs>, this I am mentioning in order to give
                    you an idea what I have done during these last years. <!--[...]--></p>

                     <p>Paul Tillich (20. August 1886 – 22. Oktober 1965) war ein deutscher evangelischer Theologe und Religionsphilosoph. Nach seiner Tätigkeit als Feldprediger im Ersten Weltkrieg lehrte er an verschiedenen Universitäten in Deutschland, bis er 1933 emigrieren musste und in den USA wirkte, unter anderem in New York, Harvard und Chicago. Tillich entwickelte eine Theologie der Kultur und verstand Religion als das „was uns unbedingt angeht“. In seiner „Systematic Theology“ formulierte er die Methode der Korrelation und deutete Gott als „Macht des Seins“. Seine Arbeiten verbinden Theologie, Philosophie und Existenzdenken und hatten großen Einfluss auf das religiöse Denken der Moderne.</p>
