Frederick C. Beiser was born and raised in the US, and studied in
the UK at Oriel and Wolfson Colleges, Oxford. He also studied in
Germany and lived in Berlin for many years, receiving stipends from
the Fritz Thyssen Stiftung and the Humboldt Stiftung. He has taught
in universities across the US, and is currently Professor of
Philosophy at Syracuse University, Syracuse, New York. Beiser is
the author of Schiller as Philosopher (OUP, 2005), Diotima's
Children (OUP, 2009), The German Historicist Tradition (OUP, 2011),
and Late German Idealism (OUP, 2013).
`Neo-Kantianism is enjoying a renaissance in a number of areas.
Continuing debates about the fate of Kantian philosophy will
benefit greatly from the richness of Beiser's account.'
M. Anthony Mills, The Review of Metaphysics
`Beiser has the ability to inhabit the philosophical perspective of
each thinker to such a remarkable extent.'
Lydia Patton, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Online
`Recommended.'
Choice
`Frederick Beiser's book is a valuable contribution to the revival
of neo-Kantian studies characterizing the past few years: a trend
that is blowing the dust off this important, yet hitherto neglected
chapter of the history of philosophy. The quality of Beiser's
writing is excellent throughout, showing mastery of an impressive
range of sources and treating with equal competence a variety of
topics in epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, and philosophy of
religion.'
Andrea Staiti, Journal of the History of Philosophy
