| Resumo: | In this paper we will address the implications of phenomenology for the philosophy of religion and theology, by the hand of Jean Héring, a disciple of Edmund Husserl in the circle of Göttingen. The questions addressed in this essay are: Does early phenomenology serve as a method of investigation for the philosophy of religion and rational theology? Is there a foundation from Husserlian phenomenology that somehow facilitates access to divine "transcendence"? Can the category of revelation be explained from Héring's phenomenology? In the recently translated work Phenomenology and Religious Philosophy. Studies on the Theory of Religious Consciousness, 2019, Héring clarifies phenomenologically the essence of the religious phenomenon, he knows like Max Scheler, that any reflection of the sacred, whether metaphysical or theological, is insufficient, the grasping of the sacred is prior to all speculation because it is God who freely reveals himself to man. |
