This book provides the English-speaking world with a comprehensive
account of the still largely unknown work of Schelling's philosophy
of mythology and revelation. Its achievement, however, is not
archival but philosophical, elucidating the relation between
Schelling and onto-theology. It explains how Schelling dealt with
the problem of nihilism and onto-theology well before Nietzsche and
Heidegger, arguing that Schelling surpasses onto-theology or the
philosophy of presence a century prior to Heidegger. Overall, the
author provocatively suggests that Heidegger is perhaps Schelling's
genuine heir and by comprehensively interpreting Schelling's
multifaceted late lectures he analyzes issues as diverse as the
Ancient relation between thinking and Being, the Medieval debate
between voluntarism and intellectualism, the overcoming of modern
subjectivism and German Idealism as well as many themes in
contemporary philosophy. The presentation is systematic rather than
thematic, following Schelling's ages of the world through the Past,
Present and Future. The results are daring, departing from the
half-century long canonical reading of the late Schelling since
Walter Schulz. This book is valuable for Schelling-scholars,
historians of philosophy and theologians alike.
