Schleiermacher belongs to the history of German idealism in his specific way. His On Religion, which is a mainly religious book, attracts many philosophers like Schelling and Hegel. The philosophy of Spinoza and Jacobi has a deep influence on the arguments of the independence of religion in On Religion. For the reaction of Schelling, Schleiermacher transfers the basis of the independence of religion from the intuition to feeling. Also under the influence of Schelling's Vorlesungen Ü ber Die Methode Des Akademischen Studiums, Schleiermacher establishes his own system of philosophy, which has a complex relationship with that of Schelling and Hegel.
