Allen W. Wood presents the first book-length systematic exposition
in English of Fichte's most important ethical work, the System of
Ethics (1798). He places this work in the context of Fichte's life
and career, of his philosophical system as conceived in the later
Jena period, and in relation to his philosophy of right or justice
and politics. Wood discusses Fichte's defense of freedom of the
will, his grounding of the moral principle, theory of moral
conscience, transcendental deduction of intersubjectivity, and his
conception of free rational communication and the rational society.
He develops and emphasizes the social and political radicalism of
Fichte's moral and political philosophy, and brings out the
philosophical interest of Fichte's positions and arguments for
present day philosophy. Fichte's Ethical Thought defends the
position that Fichte is a major thinker in the history of ethics,
and the most important figure in the history of modern continental
philosophy in the past two centuries.
