G. Fichte's short book \u003ci\u003eThe Vocation of Man\u003c\/i\u003e (1800) is both an introduction to and a defense of his philosophical system, and is one of the best-known contributions to German Idealism. This collection of new essays reflects a wide and instructive variety of philosophical and hermeneutic approaches, which combine to cast new light upon Fichte's familiar text. The contributors highlight some of the overlooked complexities and implications of \u003ci\u003eThe Vocation of Man\u003c\/i\u003e and situate it firmly within the intellectual context within which it was originally written, relating it to the positions of Kant, Hegel, Schelling, Schlegel, Jacobi, and others. In addition, the essays relate the text to issues of contemporary concern such as the limits of language, the character of rational agency, the problem of evil, the relation of theoretical knowledge to practical belief, and the dialectic of judgment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Breazeale\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1438447647\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781438447643\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e State University of New York Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/02\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 329\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.90d","brand":"Daniel Breazeale","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48088255922431,"sku":"9781438447643","price":36.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3620e777-ca45-4281-bbaa-8e3392c99d67.jpg?v=1769103898","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fichtes-vocation-of-man-daniel-breazeale-9781438447643","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
