    his successors. This intellectual tradition subsequently absorbed the empirical methods of the new science, and the German universities of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries submitted all literary, scientific, historical, philosophic and theological knowledge to penetrating scrutiny. Great minds like those of Kant and Hegel exemplified this critical intellectual heritage at its best. Yet this precious legacy of free inquiry was not always fostered or welcomed among Lutherans.
