Abstract
Paul Johannes Tillich (1886–1965) was a German‐American Lutheran theologian and philosopher. Profoundly influenced by his experiences in Weimar Germany after World War I, Tillich emigrated from Frankfurt to the USA in 1939, where he held positions at Union Theological Seminary and Colombia University, New York, Harvard University, and the University of Chicago. Renowned as a philosophical theologian and theologian of culture, his major works include his three‐volumeSystematic Theology(1951–63), cultural‐theological analyses such asThe Courage to Be(1952) andDynamics of Faith(1957), as well as volumes of sermons and essays on various themes in ethics and political philosophy. Tillich's specific importance for philosophy of religion resides in his novel categorization of the history and aims of philosophy of religion, his understanding of the nature of religion, his account of God, and his concept of religious symbols.
