Electrifying when first delivered in 1973, legendary in the years
since, Dieter Henrich's lectures on German Idealism were the first
contact a major German philosopher had made with an American
audience since the onset of World War II. They remain one of the
most eloquent explanations and interpretations of classical German
philosophy and of the way it relates to the concerns of
contemporary philosophy. Thanks to the editorial work of David
Pacini, the lectures appear here with annotations linking them to
editions of the masterworks of German philosophy as they are now
available.
Henrich describes the movement that led from Kant to Hegel,
beginning with an interpretation of the structure and tensions of
Kant's system. He locates the Kantian movement and revival of
Spinoza, as sketched by F. H. Jacobi, in the intellectual
conditions of the time and in the philosophical motivations of
modern thought. Providing extensive analysis of the various
versions of Fichte's Science of Knowledge, Henrich brings into view
a constellation of problems that illuminate the accomplishments of
the founders of Romanticism, Novalis and Friedrich Schlegel, and of
the poet Holderlin's original philosophy. He concludes with an
interpretation of the basic design of Hegel's system.
