System and Freedom in Kant and Fichte, Paperback / softback Book

System and Freedom in Kant and Fichte Paperback / softback

Edited by Giovanni Pietro Basile, Ansgar Lyssy

Part of the Routledge Studies in Eighteenth-Century Philosophy series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book investigates various aspects of freedom as developed in the philosophical systems of Kant and Fichte. Freedom, both Kant and Fichte insist, does not mean that we can choose or think independently from all rules or necessity, but rather that we willingly accept a certain kind of submission under these rules.

Therefore, the conditions of our knowledge affect and inform our self-understanding, our willing, and the ways we justify our practical choices.

The essays in this volume explore both philosophers’ conceptions of human freedom as they relate to art, history, politics, and religion.

They reveal how integrating freedom into a system of thought is crucial for our understanding of modern philosophy. System and Freedom in Kant and Fichte will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working on Kant, modern philosophy, and German Studies.
