About this Item
First edition of an important development in German idealism post-Kant. This was Schelling's most systematic and mature exposition of his Naturphilosophie, published seven years after Fichte's Wissenschaftslehre and seven years before Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit. Through Coleridge, Schelling's influence (and particularly that of this book) on the English romantics was considerable. Schneeberger 58. Adickes 1980. 'The model presented in the System impresses not least because, at the same time as establishing the notion of the history of self-consciousness that would be decisive for Hegel, it offers, in a manner which goes beyond its sources in Fichte, a model of the relationship between the subject and its conceptually inaccessible motivating forces which would affect significant parts of nineteenth century thought from Schopenhauer, to Nietzsche, to Freud' (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy). PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: 8vo, xvi, 486, [1] pp., contemporary speckled boards, worn, paper spine label, early ownership inscription on front free endpaper, title-page a little creased, occasional light foxing, a good sound copy.
