My attempt: in this paper is to consider how the traditional view of reason as a faculty comes to be replaced by Jaspers' view of reason as a "praxis". It means a change of i .of: a physical outlook and procedure. II. The ground for such a change had been prepared by Dilthey's "critique of the historical reason" and also by Kierkegaard's and Nietzsche' restoration of the awareness of the Ground of Being. III. The view of reason as a faculty is described from its rise to its collapse. In Socrates-Pl.a to' s thought, the faculty-view and praxis- view cannot be clearly divided without difficulty. Aristotle is the founder of the faculty-view. This Aristotlean determination of the view of reason seems characterized by the abstraction, or rather by an idealization of the Greek ground-experience of the surpassing Being which still orientated Socrates-Plato's thought. Aquinas strengthens this view. Kant reaches the highest formulation of this view. Hegel develops this formulation, and at the same time brings about its collapse. IV. Jaspers returns to the encountering relation of man with the Ultimate Being, and reaches a view of reason as praxis. In opposition to the view of reason as a faculty, Jaspers is best understood as one who res tored reason to the meaning-context which was still present in the faculty view under sublimation into idea. Jaspers, having recourse both to liistoricist and existential awareness, chooses "Love" as the "unconditional imperative". And the unconditional imperative is regarded as the "voice." of the Eternal in Time, that is, the Timeless in Tine. Thus Jaspers drives his reflection to the point where reason and Love are united in confrontation with the Ground of Being. Then he concentrates this awareness as his own "ground- experience', and regards this as the guiding star for his philosophising. Therefore, for Jaspers, reason must not separate itself from the polaric unity with Love which is simultaneously eternal and historical, Man's state of the awareness and choice of this fundamental relationship is called "Existenz". But Existenz in its historical manifestation in Time is also "potential Existenz" in the sense that it is committed to the task of recovering itself from its constant tendency to split into what Jaspers calls "empirical existence", "the understanding" and "Geist" (as the whole of feeling, willing and knowing). On this basis, reason is seen as what restores the splintered Existenz to the unity of authentic Existenz. But this is not a task which the individual as a potential Existenz can do by himself alone. It is done only in relation with other individuals. Reason as a personal concern for one's own movement towards authenticity is called "transcending", and as the ground of relationship to others it is called "communication".

Karl Jaspers is one of the least understood and most neglected major philosophers of the twentieth century, and yet his ideas, particularly those concerned with death, have immense contemporary relevance.Filiz Peach provides a clear explanation of Jaspers' philosophy of existence, clarifying and reassessing the concept of death that is central to his thought. For Jaspers, a human being is not merely a physical entity but a being with a transcendent aspect and so, in some sense 'deathless'. Peach explores this transcendent aspect of humanity and what it is to be 'deathless' in Jaspersian terms.This book is a major contribution to the scarce literature on Jaspers and will be valuable to student and academic alike.

This book sets out a new reading of the much-neglected philosophy of Karl Jaspers. By questioning the common perception of Jaspers either as a proponent of irrationalist cultural philosophy or as an early, peripheral disciple of Martin Heidegger, it re-establishes him as a central figure in modern European philosophy. Giving particular consideration to his position in epistemological, metaphysical and political debate, the author argues that Jaspers's work deserves renewed consideration in a number of important discussions, particularly in hermeneutics, anthropological reflections on religion, the critique of idealism, and debates on the end of metaphysics.

This book traces the work of German philosopher Karl Jaspers (1883-1969) from his origins as a young psychiatrist up to his maturity as an existentialist philosopher. The critique of Jaspers’s thought follows his attempts to grant meaning to the human search for self-understanding. It reveals the difficulties and frustrations entailed in this search. The book reveals to the reader Jaspers’s handling of these difficulties through constituting a philosophical relation toward the Being existing beyond the individual: other people, the world, and transcendence.In this book, the author conducts an ongoing dialog with existing research into Jaspers’s work, and proposes her own new reading. As well as critiquing the existing interpretations, the author uncovers the challenges Jaspers’s character has presented the readers. Unlike most scholars, who generally ignored Jaspers’s early writings, dealing with psychiatry and psychology, this book suggests a philosophical reading of these writings. This exposes the unity of the world from which Jaspers created, first as a psychiatrist and later as a philosopher. This reading shows Jaspers’s work as an ambitious attempt to formulate an original perception of the two basic themes that have interested philosophy and human thought throughout the ages: Selfhood and Being.

This book paints a brief picture of Karl Jaspers' unusual life and philosophy. The reader gets to know a brave personality who had to face a life between extremes. Threatened by an incurable disease and harassed by the Nazi regime, Jaspers nevertheless succeeds in building a fruitful work as a psychiatrist, researcher, academic teacher, philosopher and political writer and living an unusually happy marriage in the process. The reader is introduced to the main themes of his thinking: the meaning of life in borderline situations, interpersonal communication, God, the meaning of history and the defense of democracy. His criticism of illiberal totalitarian ways of thinking,

This study provides an in-depth analysis of the relationship between modernity and Christianity. The author argues that the notion of revelation is eminently reasonable and indissolubly connected with being and reality. He takes Jaspers' philosophy of religion as representative of the 'classical' modern critique and gives it its due. He then takes a step backward, so to speak, and by means of a consideration of the history of ideas, seeks to rehabilitate the Christian understanding of revelation. To do this, he draws upon Schelling's remarkable philosophy of revelation and Baader's much less familiar speculative dogmatics. However, this study is much more than a profound philosophical and theological account of the thought of Jaspers, Schelling and Baader. It is above all an eloquent defence of the plausibility and intelligibility of what Christians have always believed. In fact, the author makes a compelling case for the claim that revelation is 'that without which Christianity cannot be thought'.
