DIAZ-ARBOLEDA, Juan Sebastián y YANEZ-CANAL, Jaime. The romantic background of Max Scheler's concept of religion. Entramado [online]. 2023, vol.19, n.2, e18. Epub 30-Oct-2023. ISSN 1900-3803. https://doi.org/10.18041/1900-3803/entramado.2.9488.
In modernity moral reflection has been influenced by orientations grounded in reason and in feeling. Two exemplars of these orientations are the Enlightenment and Romanticism, respectively The development of these cultural and intellectual movements is associated with demands for social and political rights, together with the insistence in the importance of solidarity and brotherhood in the development of communities. This reflection paper presents an interpretative perspective of Max Scheler's concept of religion. The reflection is focused on the romantic roots of the Schelerian proposal, derived from the modern discussion between Rationalism and Romanticism. Additionally the political and social context to which Scheler's conceptualization responds is presented. As a result of this reflection, it is concluded that Scheler's concept of religion claims the importance of values and moral commitment against Europe's political crises at the beginning of the 20th century.
