Max Wilhelm Theodore Reischle (18 June 1858 – 11 December 1905) was an Austrian-born German Protestant systematic theologian. He was born in Vienna, and died in Tübingen. In 1887, he received his doctorate at the University of Tübingen, later working as a professor at the Karlsgymnasium in Stuttgart (from 1889). In 1892, he was appointed a full professor of practical theology at the University of Giessen, then become a professor of systematic theology at the University of Göttingen (1895). During the following year, he accepted a call to Halle as chair of systematic theology. His studies largely dealt with mysticism in theology, the philosophy of religion and the transmission of ethical principles in academic instruction.
