Cambridge University Press Fichte The System of Ethics According to the Principles of the Wissenschaftslehre Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy
Book SynopsisFichte's System of Ethics, published in 1798, is at once the most accessible presentation of its author's comprehensive philosophical project, The Science of Knowledge or Wissenschaftslehre, and the most important work in moral philosophy written between Kant and Hegel. Fichte's ethics integrates the discussion of our moral duties into the systematic framework of a transcendental theory of the human subject. Its major philosophical themes include the practical nature of self-consciousness, the relation between reason and volition, the essential role of the drives in human willing, the possibility of changing the natural world, the reality of one's own body, the reality of other human beings, and the practical necessity of social relations between human beings. This volume offers a translation of the work together with an introduction that sets it in its philosophical and historical contexts.Table of ContentsPart I. Deduction of the Principle of Morality; Part II. Deduction of the Reality and Applicability of the Principle of Morality; Part III. Systematic Application of the Principle of Morality, or Ethics in the Narrower Sense.

Rlpg/Galleys Kant Fichte and the Legacy of Transcendental
Book SynopsisKant, Fichte, and the Legacy of Transcendental Idealism contains ten new essays by leading and rising scholars from the United States, Europe, and Asia who explore the historical development and conceptual contours of Kantian and post-Kantian philosophy.Trade ReviewThis rich collection reflects both the broad range and the high quality of the best contemporary scholarship on the idealist tradition. The collection brings together a number of leading commentators and broaches issues in semantic theory, political philosophy and social theory, as well as moral philosophy, metaphysics and epistemology. It represents a welcome trend in the best recent scholarship to reach back to Kant’s predecessors and contemporaries (e.g., Rousseau, Pistorius) as well as to his immediate successors (Fichte, Schelling, Hegel) in coming to terms with the legacy of transcendental idealism. -- Wayne Martin, University of EssexThis volume is notable for its valuable essays by international experts who closely compare Kant not only with Fichte, but also with a range of other significant figures, including Hutcheson, Rousseau, Pistorius, Jacobi, Schelling, and Hegel. -- Karl Ameriks, University of Notre DameTable of ContentsChapter 1.

Cambridge University Press Nietzsche Untimely Meditations Cambridge Texts in
Book SynopsisThe four short works in Untimely Meditations were published by Nietzsche between 1873 and 1876.They deal with such broad topics as the relationship between popular and genuine culture, strategies for cultural reform, the task of philosophy, the nature of education, and the relationship between art, science and life. They also include Nietzsche's earliest statement of his own understanding of human selfhood as a process of endlessly 'becoming who one is'. As Daniel Breazeale shows in his introduction to this new edition of R. J. Hollingdale's translation of the essays, these four early texts are key documents for understanding the development of Nietzsche's thought and clearly anticipate many of the themes of his later writings. Nietzsche himself always cherished his Untimely Meditations and believed that they provide valuable evidence of his 'becoming and self-overcoming' and constitute a 'public pledge' concerning his own distinctive task as a philosopher.Table of ContentsDavid Strauss, the confessor and the writer; On the uses and disadvantages of history for life; Schopenhauer as educator; Richard Wagner in Bayreuth.
