Abstract
This article aims to show how F. Schleiermacher's Dialectic (1811, and especially 1814-15), understood as a theory of dialogue aiming for pure knowledge, owes a significant part of its specificity to the return to romantic experience of fragments practiced by Schleiermacher in the Athenaeum (1798-1800) and theorised by him in the Discourses on Religion (1799), (rather than to the grand speculative systems developed by Fichte, Schelling and Hegel). The Dialectic in fact proposes an original (dialogic) discourse on the romantic tension between the project for a «symphilosophie» (of an immediate community of the philosopher) and the fragmentary demand (the conscience of individuality) in a theory of knowledge in its intersubjective constitution.
