comment

Dietrich von Hildebrand first acquired his interest in Catholicism through the influence of the German phenomenologist, Max Scheler (1874-1928), whose ethics and value theory also had a considerable influence on him. When Scheler lost his post at the Catholic University of Munich in 1910 due to infelicities in his marital life, it was Von Hildebrand who took him in and provided him with lodging for a time. While Scheler proceeded to become estranged from the Catholic Church before his death in 1928, Von Hildebrand's Catholic convictions continued to deepen throughout his life. In many ways, his Ethics may be viewed, from a Catholic point of view, as providing a corrective to certain defects in Scheler's phenomenological ethics -- defects such as have been noted by Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II) in his doctoral dissertation on Scheler (cf. Karol Wojtyla, "Ocena mozliwosei zbudowania etyki chrzescijanskiej przy zalozeniach systemn Maksa Schelera" [Peut-on construire l'éthique chrétienne à partir des principes de Max Scheler?], Diss. Lublin: Towarzystwo Naukowe Katolickiego Universytetu Lubelskiego, 1959).

Comment

Jan 11, 2011 - There is a tag on the bottom of the page that says "Converts to Roman Catholicism from atheism or agnosticism". I don't know enough about this man to remove this myself, but it seems to me from reading this article that he coverted to Catholicism from protestantism, not from athesim for agnosticism. Does anyone else have any thoughts about this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.198.153.194 (talk) 15:27, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In the absence of a defence (any time this last year) of what prima facie is a silly mistake, it's now corrected Testbed (talk) 00:00, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mistake ?

It is writen "He was a vocal opponent of Adolf Hitler and Nazism, fleeing from Germany to Vienna, Austria in 1933 upon Hitler's rise to power."...
Read the auto-briography there [1]...
von Hildebrand, said "I left Germany for good, with fifteen dollars in my pocket and went to Italy on March 13, 1933." (there are some other mistakes, too...)Sg7438 (talk) 08:14, 20 May 2012 (UTC)Sg7438Sg7438 (talk) 08:14, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section:

Cite templates will be used where possible.
I prefer capitalization and punctuation to follow the standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, rather than "title case".
Links (either direct or indirect) to potentially unreliable or incomplete digitised copies and to booksellers may be removed.

This is a work in progress; feel free to continue. Sunwin1960 (talk) 01:44, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
