From Orthodoxy To Atheism: The Intellectual Development Of Bruno Bauer, Stan Michael Landry Jan 2003

From Orthodoxy To Atheism: The Intellectual Development Of Bruno Bauer, Stan Michael Landry

LSU Master's Theses

In this paper I argue that the Young Hegelian Protestant theologian Bruno Bauer was ‘radicalized’ by the events of 1840s Prussia, and that the personal experiences he endured during this period explain his transition from the orthodox Hegelian Christianity that he espoused during his student days at the University of Berlin, to the vitriolic atheism and criticism of the Prussian state which he spouted from 1842 until the dissolution of his radical band of Young Hegelian friends known as Die Freien.

Fourth, how did they use written language to portray a particular voice to the reader for a particular purpose? Fifth, did …
