The conscious, active self is constituted in its sovereign autonomy, as free and undivided, by an inner act of willful resistance, a physical effort towards its own body and the world. For the first time, a multidisciplinary group of senior and junior researchers from Japan, USA and Europe investigate origins and discursive cross-fertilization of this concept around 1800, an intermediary stage between 1870 and 1945, and its influence upon existentialism, phenomenology, and deconstructivism during the postwar-period and beyond, from 1943 to 2010.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e9789004515611 Acknowledgements  List of Figures  Notes on Contributors    Introduction    Part 1 Maine De Biran in His Time (Around) 1800    1 Maine de Biran: Gender, Sensibility, and the Dynamics of Self in Post-revolutionary France   Sean Quinlan    2 Maine de Biran and Neurology   Larry McGrath    3 On Sympathy and Attention: Maine de Biran, Reader of Adam Smith and Dugald Stewart   Marco Piazza    4 Did Maine de Biran Refute David Hume?   Warren Schmaus    5 Biran and Schelling: “Contact Points” for a Radical Phenomenology   Marc Maesschalck    6 Schopenhauer and the Primal Will—A Radically Phenomenological Reading in Comparison with Maine de Biran   Rolf Kühn    7 Quel œil peut se voir soi-même?: Character and Habit in Stendhal and Maine de Biran   Alessandra Aloisi    Part 2 Intermediary Biranian Posterities (1870s–1945)    8 Jules Lachelier, Reader of Maine de Biran—Contention and Legacy   Denise Vincenti    9 Maine de Biran, Alfred Fouillée, Jean-Marie Guyau, Henri Bergson: from Concentration to Expansion and Back Again   Benjamin Jacques Bâcle    10 The French Kant (or Fichte)?
