Synopsis

From Joachim Ritter's 'Collegium Philosophicum', important representatives of German contemporary philosophy emerged, including Hermann Lübbe, Odo Marquard and Robert Spaemann. Some of them acted as publicists and experts, in political offices and bodies, in law or church far beyond the academic sphere. This 'knight school' has shaped the scientific discourse and spiritual life of the Federal Republic, for example in the disputes about the basics of freedom-democratic order, the renewal of practical philosophy or the task of the humanities. Today, the importance of the circle is increasingly emerging and is discussed in the horizon of current debates around civil society, history culture, and the return of religion.
