Abstract
When the following monograph first appeared, as a thesis successfully defended at the Toronto School of Theology in 1968, very little work had been done on Schleiermacher's sermons.Ian Wishart produced one of the most careful studies of Schleiermacher's preaching ever to have appeared in English.The work has been inaccessible until now, available only at the University of Toronto, where it was shelved alongside other successfully defended theses.It is our pleasure to publish it in revised form in Analecta Hermeneutica, and, through the revolution of open access, offer it to the world.Since the thesis was written, Barth's commentary on Schleiermacher's sermons has been published.1 But there is little repetition here.Wishart's approach to Schleiermacher's sermons could not be more different than Barth's.Barth has little time for hermeneutics, and even less time for transcendental psychology; Wishart, recognizing Schleiermacher's decisive contributions to both these fields, reads Schleiermacher's sermons as complementary, indeed essential, to his hermeneutics and psychology.Schleiermacher is rightfully recognized as the father of modern theology.His influence is everywhere in the twentieth century, not only in theology but in philosophy, in religious studies, and in classics.Karl Barth's theology, and thus the course of Protestant theology in the twentieth century, can be traced back to Schleiermacher.Barth's influential objections to apologetics, to Romanticism, and to theological foundationalism originate, in one way or another, in his critical engagement with Schleiermacher.Barth is always qualified in his critique of Schleiermacher, and it is not hard to discern his debt to him.Barth's signature doctrine of the sovereignty of God is in some ways a reverse expression of Schleiermacher's "feeling of absolute dependence."The intra-ecclesial nature of theological insight, another standard Barthian theme, is also rooted in Schleiermacher.In Protestant Theology in the Nineteenth Century, Barth cautiously praises Schleiermacher for keeping theology in the Church: "He too safeguarded the specifically theological quality of theology." 2 At the same time,

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
