Summary/Abstract: This paper posits that Körmöczi’s philosophy is one of the first important receptions of the German Philosophy (e.g. Kant and Hegel). The first part gives a basic outline of Körmöczi’s thinking and his debate with the offi cial Christianity, with special attention on faithful human existence as the basic problem of the philosophy of 18th century. In the second part, Körmöczi’s thought is analyzed from the perspective of Schleiermacher’s philosophy (Friedrich Schleiermacher, 1768–1834) by taking a closer look at the German Romantic ideas about the form of individual faith. While highlighting common aspects, the paper also emphasizes diff erences between the two respective positions.
