Description

This volume fills an important gap in the philosophical literature by providing an anthology of writings from the crucial generation of thinkers between Kant and Hegel. An introductory essay by di Giovanni fits these authors and their work into the context of the general reception of Kant's Critique of Pure Reason.

Between Kant and Hegel includes a translation of the only significant reviews by Hegel in this period not previously available in English. In conclusion, the book provides Schelling's justification of the new philosophy of nature (in the Journal) against sceptical and religious attack.

George di Giovanni is Associate Professor of Philosophy at McGill University, Montreal. H. S. Harris is Distinguished Research Professor of Philosophy at Glendon College, York University in Toronto.
