Synopsis

Book by Frings, Manfred S.

About the Author

After Manfred S. Frings had emigrated to the United States some forty years ago, he initiated what turned out to be an international pursuit of the philosophy of Max Scheler. In this, he had also followed in footsteps of Alfred Schutz who had pointed earlier to the profound place that Max Scheler would have in 20th century thought. Since 1970, Manfred Frings has been the editor of the German collected edition of Scheler's Works (Gesammelte Werke) and director of the Max-Scheler-Archives, Munich and Albuquerque, N.M. (formerly Chicago). He is president of the international Max-Scheler-Gesellschaft, whose seat is at the University of Cologne. Professor Frings taught and lectured at many institutions of higher learning, at home and abroad. A number of his abundant publications on Scheler have been translated into Chinese, Japanese, and French. His work met with several personal expressions of gratitude and recognition, including those of Pope John Paul II and Martin Heidegger.
