内容説明

Contemporary philosophy and literary theory are based upon German philosophy from Kant onwards. Drawing on recent German theory, the author recoinsiders the path of German philosophy from Kant to Nietzsche, in relation to consciousness, aesthetics and language. He provides interpretations of Kant, Fichte, the early Romantics, Schelling, Hegel, Schleiermacher and Nietzsche, telling a different story of modernity to the one current in many areas of the humanities. The book traces the beginnings of modern debates on aesthetics and politics, as well as the origins of modern hermeneutics, paying attention to the significance of music in modern philosophy. "Aesthetics and subjectivity" relates the issues dealt with to contemporary theoretical concerns and aims to provide an introduction to a still little understood tradition of thought. It will be of interest to teachers and advanced students in the humanities, particularly literature and philosophy.
