Although Schelling and Hegel acknowledged Hderlin early on as their equal, for a long time his philosophical thought remained unknown outside the small circle of his friends.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAmong the most prominent figures in the rediscovery of Hderlin's thought is Dieter Henrich, who, in a series of highly influential studies over the last thirty years, has shown that Hderlin played a decisive role in the development of philosophy from Kant to Hegel, and hence in the formation of German Idealism. Among other things, Henrich demonstrated that Hderlin, while still a student, launched a powerful critique of Fichte's \u003ci\u003eWissenschaftslehre\u003c\/i\u003e and outlined an alternative to the dominant view of the foundation of philosophy. This alternative proved pathbreaking for his philosophical friends, forcing Hegel, for example, to abandon his own Kantianism and, eventually, to give systematic articulation to a position that went even beyond Hderlin's.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis volume includes six of Henrich's most important essays on Hderlin's philosophical significance. Among the topics discussed are Hderlin's motivation and methodological orientation in his work on German Idealism, the intellectual atmosphere of Hderlin's student years and the philosophical problems that occupied him, Hderlin's attitude toward any first-principle philosophy, and the complex personal and philosophical relationships between Hegel and Hderlin. The last essay is a long, detailed interpretation of one of Hderlin's greatest poems, \"Remembrance.\" In elucidating its lyric composition and structure, Henrich also seeks to show how it incorporates and develops Hderlin's philosophical thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dieter Henrich\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804727392\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804727396\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 316\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.36h x 6.26w x 0.90d","brand":"Dieter Henrich","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44159220547839,"sku":"9780804727396","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_191fca43-5080-4ead-a484-357611ce0a42.jpg?v=1689081315","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-course-of-remembrance-and-dieter-henrich-9780804727396","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
