« Gentle revolutionaries »
L’article défend la thèse selon laquelle Alexander von Humboldt et son frère Wilhelm von Humboldt étaient, tout au long de leur vie, attachés aux idéaux principaux de la Révolution française qu’ils cherchaient à réaliser par des moyens pacifiques, tels que des publications ou leur influence personnelle sur des puissants, de même que, dans le cas de Wilhelm, par un nouveau modèle pour l’université. Cette démarche ne fut pas infructueuse, particuli…

Nietzsche on morality as a “sign language of the affects”
This article argues that Nietzsche’s meta-ethics is basically a form of sentimentalism (as opposed to cognitivism), but a form of sentimentalism that includes cognitive components in the sentiments that are involved. The article also ascribes to Nietzsche the more original position that the moral sentiments in question vary dramatically between historical periods, cultures, and even individuals, sometimes indeed to the point of becoming inverted …
The Burden of Antiquity
The Oxford Handbook of German Philosophy in the Nineteenth Century
Metaphysics and Critique of Metaphysics
Oxford Handbook of German Philosophy in the Nineteenth Century
No period of history has been richer in philosophical discoveries than Germany during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. And while it was the eighteenth century that saw Germany attain maturity in the discipline (above all in the works of Immanuel Kant), it was arguably the nineteenth century that bore the greatest philosophical fruits. This Handbook provides a comprehensive introduction to the philosophy of nineteenth-century Germany that …
Spinoza and German Idealism
There can be little doubt that without Spinoza, German Idealism would have been just as impossible as it would have been without Kant. Yet the precise nature of Spinoza's influence on the German Idealists has hardly been studied in detail. This volume of essays by leading scholars sheds light on how the appropriation of Spinoza by Fichte, Schelling and Hegel grew out of the reception of his philosophy by, among others, Lessing, Mendelssohn, Jacob…
German Philosophy of Language
The author presents a ground-breaking study of German philosophy of language in the nineteenth century (and beyond). His previous book, After Herder, showed that the eighteenth-century philosopher J. G. Herder played the fundamental role in founding modern philosophy of language, including new theories of interpretation ('hermeneutics') and translation, as well as in establishing such whole new disciplines concerned with language as anthropology …

The Cambridge Companion to Hegel and Nineteenth-Century Philosophy
The Cambridge Companion to Hegel and Nineteenth-Century Philosophy examines Hegel within his broader historical and philosophical contexts. Covering all major aspects of Hegel's philosophy, the volume provides an introduction to his logic, epistemology, philosophy of mind, social and political philosophy, philosophy of nature and aesthetics. It includes essays by an internationally recognised team of Hegel scholars. The volume begins with Terry P…
Socrates’ Profession Of Ignorance
In a previous article in this journal I developed an account of the historical Socrates’ demand for definitions of ethical terms. The present article is interdependent with the previous one, but turns to a further topic. It is a well-attested fact that Socrates professed ignorance about the matters on which his enquiries focused, and indeed about all matters of real importance. Among those who knew him personally, both Plato and Aeschines of Sphe…
Socrates’ Demand For Definitions
In this article I would like to o·er an interpretation of a central aspect of the philosophy of the historical Socrates: his demand for definitions of ethical terms. (A companion article to follow, ‘Socrates’ Profession of Ignorance’, will offer a closely interconnected interpretation of the historical Socrates’ profession of ignorance.) It is, of course, a vigorously disputed question whether we are in a position to arrive at conclusions about t…
Herder
Johann Gottfried von Herder (1744–1803) is one of the most important German philosophers of the eighteenth century, who had enormous influence on later thinkers such as Hegel, Schleiermacher and Nietzsche. His wide-ranging ideas were formative in the development of linguistics, hermeneutics, anthropology and bible scholarship, and even today they retain their vitality and relevance to an extraordinary degree. This volume presents a translation of…

Hegel's Idea of a 'Phenomenology of Spirit
Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit has acquired a paradoxical reputation as one of the most important and most impenetrable and inconsistent philosophical works. In this study Michael N. Forster advances his own reading of Hegel's text. His approach differs from that of previous scholars in two crucial ways: he reads it, first as a whole - not piecemeal, as it has usually been analyzed, and second, wihtin the context of Hegel's braoder corpus and th…
Hegel's idea of a Phenomenology of spirit
In Hegel's Idea of a Phenomenology of Spirit, Michael N. Forster advances an original reading of the work. His approach differs from that of previous scholars in two main ways: he reads the work, first, as a whole - not piecemeal, as it has usually been analyzed - and second, within the context of Hegel's broader corpus and the thought of other philosophers. Forster's reading reveals the Phenomenology of Spirit as in fact an impressively coherent…
