380 pp. German text. Strauss's work was criticized strongly by Nietzsche and the Hegelians (most notably Bruno Bauer). "His religious odyssey closed with the publication of Der alte und der neue Glaube (1872; The Old Faith and the New), in which he ventured to replace Christianity with scientific materialism, a personalized form of Darwinism. Criticized for an inadequate understanding of the biblical and theological texts he criticized, Strauss nevertheless not only influenced 20th-century liberal and eschatological schools of biblical thought but also challenged subsequent scholars with the search for the 'historical Jesus.'" - Britannica
