El cristianismo como educación del género humano en Fichte

Starting from Lessing’s precedent, the understanding of Christianity in Fichte as an educational process of humanity is analysed, underlining the proximity and differences between the two authors. Ancient world religion, message of Christ and rational Christianity are the phases of such development. Finally, the Christian heritage is highlighted in the understanding of the genetic method of the Doctrine of Science, as well as the hermeneutical horizon that also characterizes Fichte's position.
