Preferred term

Ludwig Feuerbach  

Definition

  • Ludwig Feuerbach, German philosopher, was noted for his materialistic interpretation of God/ Christianity and humankind within a temporal framework. Although his philosophical and anthropological perspective was established before the theory of evolution (1859) by Charles Darwin (1809–1882), Feuerbach understood that the emergence of consciousness allowed humankind to integrate intelligence and emotion with the understanding of human mortality.
