Description: Freedom and Reason in Kant, Schelling, and Kierkegaard by Michelle Kosch Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Michelle Kosch examines the conceptions of free will and the foundations of ethics in the work of Kant, Schelling, and Kierkegaard. She seeks to understand the history of German idealism better by looking at it through the lens of these issues, and to understand Kierkegaard better by placing his thought in this context. Publisher Description Michelle Koschs book traces a complex of issues surrounding moral agency - how is moral responsibility consistent with the possibility of theoretical explanation? is moral agency essentially rational agency? can autonomy be the foundation of ethics? - from Kant through Schelling to Kierkegaard. There are two complementary projects here. The first is to clarify the contours of German idealism as a philosophical movement by examining the motivations not only of itsbeginning, but also of its end. In tracing the motivations for the transition to mid-19th century post-idealism to Schellings middle and late periods and, ultimately, back to a problem originallypresented in Kant, it shows the causes of the demise of that movement to be the same as the causes of its rise. In the process it presents the most detailed discussion to date of the moral psychology and moral epistemology of Schellings work after 1809.The second project - which is simply the first viewed from a different angle - is to trace the sources of Kierkegaards theory of agency and his criticism of philosophical ethics to this same complex of issues in Kant andpost-Kantian idealism. In the process, Kosch argues that Schellings influence on Kierkegaard was greater than has been thought, and builds a new understanding of Kierkegaards project in hispseudonymous works on the basis of this revised picture of their historical background. It is one that uncovers much of interest and relevance to contemporary debates. Author Biography Michelle Kosch is Professor of Philosophy at the Sage School of Philosophy at Cornell University.
