Description du livre
The ‘death’ of German Idealism has been decried
innumerable times since its revolutionary inception, whether it be by the 19th-century
critique of Western metaphysics, phenomenology, contemporary French philosophy,
or analytic philosophy. Yet in the face of two hundred years of
sustained, extremely rigorous attempts to leave behind its legacy, German Idealism
has resisted its philosophical death sentence. For
this exact reason it is timely ask: What remains of German
Idealism? In what ways does its fundamental concepts and texts still speak to
us?
Drawing
together new and established voices from scholars in Kant, Fichte, Hegel,
and Schelling, this volume offers a fresh look on this time-honoured
tradition. It uses myriad of recently developed conceptual tools to present new and challenging theories of its now canonical figures.
