"Philosophical Romanticism "is one of the first books to address
the relationship between philosophy and romanticism, an area which
is currently undergoing a major revival. This collection of
specially-written articles by world-class philosophers explores the
contribution of romantic thought to topics such as freedom,
autonomy and subjectivity; memory and imagination; pluralism and
practical reason; modernism, scepticism and irony; art and ethics;
and cosmology, time and technology.
While the roots of romanticism are to be found in early German
idealism, "Philosophical Romanticism" shows that it is not a purely
European phenomenon: the development of romanticism can be traced
through to North American philosophy in the era of Emerson and
Dewey, and up to the current work of Stanley Cavell and Richard
Rorty. The articles in this collection suggest that philosophical
romanticism offers a compelling alternative to both the
reductionist tendencies of the naturalism in "analytic"philosophy,
and the deconstruction and other forms of scepticism found in
"continental" philosophy.
The thinkers and writers studied in "Philosophical Romanticism"
include Proust, Goethe, Heidegger, Novalis, Deleuze, Holderlin,
Wittgenstein and Wordsworth.
