Reviews

'Like the magical emergence of a medieval cathedral, the work of many different hands and generations, philosophical romanticism takes on a definite, if not always definable shape in this collection of remarkable essays, each of which - along with the editor's valuable introduction - deserves and rewards careful reading.' - Daniel Dahlstrom, Boston University, USA'This volume reflects - and will no doubt intensify - the strong resurgence of interest in German Early Romanticism and the diverse philosophical approaches that have developed in its wake. Several of the thirteen essays are especially helpful because of the clear and insightful way that they lay out the main philosophical relations between key historical figures (e.g., Kant, Schelling, Novalis, Schlegel, Goethe). Other essays, by well-known authors such as Cavell, Pippin, and Dreyfus, elegantly shed light on philosophical topics (e.g., the task of a philosophy of the future, the nature of self-determination, the significance of the everyday) of contemporary interest. This is certainly one of the most interesting collections of its kind in English.' - Karl Ameriks, University of Notre Dame, USA
