Description

Book Synopsis
This is the first book in English to elucidate the central issues in the work of Johann Gottlieb Fichte (17621814), a figure crucial to the movement of philosophy from Kant to German idealism. It explains Fichte's notion of subjectivity and how his particular view developed out of Kant's accounts of theoretical and practical reason.

Trade Review
