The series features projects that center upon Kant and the post-Kantian Idealists (including, but not limited to, early German romantic thinkers Fichte, Schelling, and Hegel) or upon other related forms of nineteenth-century philoso- phy—including those often considered to oppose Idealism, such as those of Kierkegaard and Nietzsche. The scholarship also seeks to critically assess the legacy of Idealism in the twentieth and twentieth-first centuries. The series uses the resources of classical German Idealism to engage in contemporary debates in all sub-fields of philosophy.

To Erin, the light of my life In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. —The Prologue to St. John’s Gospel, New Revised Standard Version Contents Abbreviations xi Introduction xv PART I: TRUTH IN THE MOVEMENT OF LIFE 1 1 The Crisis of Philosophy 3 2 The Presupposition of Positive Philosophy 15 3 The Foundation of Truth 55 4 Truth and Faith 89 5 Truth in Philosophy: The Greek Nous and the Christian Logos 115 PART II: THE REVELATION OF THE PERSON 141 6 The Task of Self-Knowledge 143 7 Soul 159 8 Spirit 179 9 Personality 213 Epilogue: The Contradiction and Struggle of Life 235 Bibliography 257 Index 269 About the Author 273 ix
