In his late work Religion within the Boundaries of Mere Reason,
Immanuel Kant struggles to answer a straightforward, yet
surprisingly difficult, question: how is radical conversion-a
complete reorientation of a person's most deeply held
values-possible? In this book, Ryan S. Kemp and Christopher
Iacovetti examine how this question gets taken up by Kant's
philosophical heirs: Schelling, Fichte, Hegel and Kierkegaard. More
than simply developing a novel account of each thinker's position,
Kemp and Iacovetti trace how each philosopher formulates his theory
in response to tensions in preceding views, culminating in
Kierkegaard's claim that radical conversion lies outside a person's
control. Kemp and Iacovetti close by examining some of the
moral-psychological implications of Kierkegaard's account,
particularly the question of how someone might responsibly relate
to values that have, by their own admission, been acquired in
contingent and accidental fashion.
