This volume examines (1) the philosophical sources of the Kantian
concepts "apperception" and "self-consciousness", (2) the
historical development of the theories of apperception and
deduction of categories within the pre-critical period, (3) the
structure and content of A- as well as B-deduction of categories,
and finally (4) the Kantian (and non-Kantian) meaning of
"apperception" and "self-consciousness".
The Early Modern Subject explores the understanding of
self-consciousness and personal identity--two fundamental features
of human subjectivity--as it developed in early modern philosophy.
Udo Thiel presents a critical evaluation of these features as they
were conceived in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. He
explains the arguments of thinkers such as Descartes, Locke,
Leibniz, Wolff, and Hume, as well as their early critics,
followers, and other philosophical contemporaries, and situates
them within their historical contexts. Interest in the issues of
self-consciousness and personal identity is in many ways
characteristic and even central to early modern thought, but Thiel
argues here that this is an interest that continues to this day, in
a form still strongly influenced by the conceptual frameworks of
early modern thought. In this book he attempts to broaden the scope
of the treatment of these issues considerably, covering more than a
hundred years of philosophical debate in France, Britain, and
Germany while remaining attentive to the details of the arguments
under scrutiny and discussing alternative interpretations in many
cases.
Johann Nikolaus Tetens (1736-1807) gehort zu den pragenden
Gestalten der europaischen Aufklarung, innerhalb der Philosophie
wie auch in Einzelwissenschaften wie der Mathematik und der
Naturforschung. Er hat die Philosophie John Lockes und David Humes
systematisch studiert und fur die epistemologischen und
moralphilosophischen Diskussionen der Zeit erschlossen. Tetens
breites Werk wird im vorliegenden Band von renommierten Forschern
analysiert."

John Lockes Essay uber den menschlichen Verstand (zuerst 1690
erschienen) ist eines der einflussreichsten Bucher der
Philosophiegeschichte. Es behandelt vorwiegend erkenntnis- und
wissenschaftstheoretische Themen, nimmt aber auch Stellung zu
Fragen aus der Philosophie des Geistes, der Religionsphilosophie
und der Ethik. Locke war einer der Initiatoren und fuhrenden Kopfe
der europaischen Aufklarung. Die Auseinandersetzung mit dem Essay
wird auch in der Philosophie der Gegenwart vehement fortgesetzt.
Die elf Beitrage dieses Bandes, die Bibliographie und ein
ausfuhrliches Glossar machen das Buch zu einem wichtigen
Begleittext zu Lockes Werk. Mit Beitragen von: Michael Ayers,
Reinhard Brandt, John Colman, Bertram Kienzle, Heiner F. Klemme,
Lorenz Kruger, Michel Malherbe, Rolf W. Puster, G.A.J. Rogers,
Rainer Specht, Jurgen Sprute und Udo Thiel
