Abstract

This book addresses the philosophical reception of early German Romanticism and offers the first in-depth study in English of the movement's most important philosopher, Friedrich Schlegel, presenting his philosophy against the background of the controversies that shaped its emergence. Elizabeth Millán-Zaibert begins by distinguishing early German Romanticism from classical German Idealism, under which it has all too often been subsumed, and then explores Schlegel's romantic philosophy (and his rejection of first principles) by showing how he responded to three central figures of the post-Kantian period in Germany—Jacobi, Reinhold, and Fichte—as well as to Kant himself. She concludes with a comprehensive critique of the aesthetic and epistemological consequences of Schlegel's thought, with special attention paid to his use of irony.

Abstract

"Hegel's critique of Early German Romanticism and its theory of irony resonates to the core of his own philosophy in the same way that Plato's polemics with the Sophists have repercussions that go to the centre of his thought. The Anti-Romantic examines Hegel's critique of Fr. Schlegel, Novalis and Schleiermacher. Hegel rarely mentions these thinkers by name and the texts dealing with them often exist on the periphery of his oeuvre. Nonetheless, individually, they represent embodiments of specific forms of irony: Schlegel, a form of critical individuality; Novalis, a form of sentimental nihilism; Schleiermacher, a monstrous hybrid of the other two. The strength of Hegel's polemical approach to these authors shows how irony itself represents for him a persistent threat to his own idea of systematic Science. This is so, we discover, because Romantic irony is more than a rival ideology; it is an actual form of discourse, one whose performative objectivity interferes with the objectivity of Hegel's own logos. Thus, Hegel's critique of irony allows us to reciprocally uncover a Hegelian theory of scientific discourse. Far from seeing irony as a form of consciousness overcome by Spirit, Hegel sees it as having become a pressing feature of his own contemporary world, as witnessed in the popularity of his Berlin rival, Schleiermacher. Finally, to the extent that ironic discourse seems, for Hegel, to imply a certain world beyond his own notion of modernity, we are left with the hypothesis that Hegel's critique of irony may be viewed as a critique of post-modernity."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Abstract

"Einer weit verbreiteten, auch und gerade in den Poetik-Vorlesungen unserer Tage emphatisch vertretenen Vorstellung zufolge ist der poeta doctus eine historisch versunkene Figur. Seit den letzten Jahrzehnten des achtzehnten Jahrhunderts wird als selbstevident vorausgesetzt, dass man nicht aus dem gelehrten Wissen heraus dichte, sondern aus der unmittelbaren Erfahrung, aus dem sich zum Wort und Bewusstsein drängenden Gefühl. Die hier versammelten Studien Christoph Königs verabschieden diesen Gemeinplatz. Königs Kunst der eindringlich-spekulativen Lektüre erschließt die Intensität der Imagination, die sich dort entzündet, wo Poesie und Philologie eine ebenso innige wie reflektierte Verbindung eingehen. Moderne Dichtung in ihren höchsten Erscheinungsformen erweist sich als sublimierte Hermeneutik, moderne Philologie in ihren bedeutendsten Leistungen als poetisches Leseexperiment. Anhand von exemplarischen Fallstudien (unter anderem zu Wilhelm von Humboldt, Schiller, Goethe, Friedrich Schlegel, Lönnrot, Hofmannsthal, Gadamer, Szondi und Bollack) entwirft Christoph König ein überzeugendes Bild der spannungsvollen Zweiheit von Poesie und Philologie, das unser Verständnis der literarischen Moderne grundlegend modifiziert."

Abstract

This 2002 volume brings together major works by German thinkers, writing just prior to and after Kant, who were enormously influential in this crucial period of aesthetics. These texts include the first translation into English of Schiller's Kallias Letters and Moritz's On the Artistic Imitation of the Beautiful, together with translations of some of Hölderlin's most important theoretical writings and works by Hamann, Lessing, Novalis and Schlegel. In a philosophical introduction J. M. Bernstein traces the development of aesthetics from its still rationalist and mimetic construction in Lessing, through the optimistic construal of art and/or beauty as the appearance of human freedom in the work of Schiller, to Hölderlin's darker vision of art as the memory of a lost unity, and the variations of that theme - of an impossible striving after the lost ideal - which are found in the work of Schlegel and Novalis.

Abstract

Das Buch widmet sich einer systematischen Rekonstruktion der ästhetisch bestimmten Subjektivität. Ausgehend von einer Analyse der neuzeitlichen (Subjekt-)Metaphysik werden dieser kritisch gegenüberstehende Theorieansätze gelesen, die unter dem Titel »Ästhetik« operieren. Damit wird versucht, konstruktiv an die Kritik der Subjektmetaphysik in den letzten Dekaden (u.a. durch Derrida) anzuschließen und ihre Ressourcen für eine zu dieser Metaphysik alternativen Theorie des Subjekts auszuloten. Die postmoderne Kritik am Subjekt führt nicht zu einer Nivellierung des Subjekts, sondern zu einer Neubeschreibung, die diese Kritik fruchtbar zu machen versucht.

Abstract

The absolute was one of the most significant philosophical concepts in the early nineteenth century, particularly for the German romantics. Its exact meaning and its role within philosophical romanticism remain, however, a highly contested topic among contemporary scholars. In The Romantic Absolute, Dalia Nassar offers an illuminating new assessment of the romantics and their understanding of the absolute. In doing so, she fills an important gap in the history of philosophy, especially with respect to the crucial period between Kant and Hegel. Scholars today interpret philosophical romanticism along two competing lines: one emphasizes the romantics' concern with epistemology, the other their concern with metaphysics. Through careful textual analysis and systematic reconstruction of the work of three major romantics-Novalis, Friedrich Schlegel, and Friedrich Schelling-Nassar shows that neither interpretation is fully satisfying. Rather, she argues, one needs to approach the absolute from both perspectives. Rescuing these philosophers from frequent misunderstanding, and even dismissal, she articulates not only a new angle on the philosophical foundations of romanticism but on the meaning and significance of the notion of the absolute itself.
