"An Outline of the History of Christian Thought Since Kant" by Edward Caldwell Moore is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the evolution of Christian thought across the late 18th to early 20th centuries, detailing the significant philosophical developments and theological movements that emerged during this transformative period. Its primary focus is to examine how philosophers and theologians, impacted by the Enlightenment and modern philosophy, reinterpreted Christianity in light of new critical, historical, and scientific contexts. The opening of the text sets the foundation for Moore's exploration by framing the Protestant Reformation as a pivotal moment that initially seemed to usher in a new era of thought, but also left many conventional assumptions unchallenged. He highlights the interplay between the Protestant tradition and modern philosophical movements, asserting that Enlightenment thinkers like Kant revolutionized philosophical inquiry, prompting a reevaluation of Christian doctrines. Moore emphasizes three major historical movements that shaped Christian thought during the 19th century: idealistic philosophy, the critical and historical movement, and the influence of the sciences. These elements, along with the shifts in religious perspectives, will form the basis for understanding the book's broader narrative on the progression of Christian thought.
