About Author

A Franco-German (Alsatian) theologian, organist, philosopher, physician, and medical missionary. Schweitzer challenged both the secular view of Jesus as depicted by historical-critical methodology current at his time in certain academic circles, as well as the traditional Christian view, depicting a Jesus Christ who expected and predicted the imminent end of the world. He received the 1952 Nobel Peace Prize for his philosophy of “Reverence for Life”.
