How did the First World War, the so-called 'Great War' - widely seen on all sides as 'the war to end all wars' - impact the development of German philosophy? Combining history and biography with astute philosophical and textual analysis, Nicolas de Warren addresses here the intellectual trajectories of ten significant wartime philosophers: Ernst Bloch, Martin Buber, Ernst Cassirer, Hermann Cohen, György Lukács, Martin Heidegger, Edmund Husserl, Franz Rosenzweig, Max Scheler and Georg Simmel. In exploring their individual works written during and after the War, the author reveals how philosophical concepts and new forms of thinking were forged in response to this unprecedented catastrophe. In reassessing standardized narratives of German thought, the book deepens and enhances our understanding of the intimate and complex relationship between philosophy and violence by demonstrating how the 1914-18 conflict was a crucible for ways of thinking that still define us today.

This book is a collection of specifically commissioned articles on the key continental European philosophical movements since 1914. It shows how each of these bodies of thought has been shaped by their responses to the horrors set in train by World War I, and considers whether we are yet ‘post-post-war’. The outbreak of World War I in August 1914,set in chain a series of crises and re-configurations, which have continued to shape the world for a century: industrialized slaughter, the end of colonialism and European empires, the rise of the USA, economic crises, fascism, Soviet Marxism, the gulags and the Shoah. Nearly all of the major movements in European thinking (phenomenology, psychoanalysis, Hegelianism, Marxism, political theology, critical theory and neoliberalism) were forged in, or shaped by, attempts to come to terms with the global trauma of the World Wars. This is the first book to describe the development of these movements after World War I, and as such promises to be of interest to philosophers and historians of philosophy around the world.

An exceptional collection of letters, postcards, original writings, and photographs The First World War witnessed an unprecedented mobilization of philosophers and their families: as soldiers at the front; as public figures on the home front; as nurses in field hospitals; as mothers and wives; as sons and fathers. In Germany, the war irrupted in the midst of the rapid growth of Edmund Husserl's phenomenological movement – widely considered one of the most significant philosophical movements in twentieth century thought. Philosophers at the Frontoffers a documentary history of phenomenology in the First World War. Through an exceptional collection of primary source materials (letters, postcards, original writings, photographs) from the Husserl Archives in Leuven, the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, and the Archives of the University of Göttingen, the complex narratives of how the war affected the lives and thought of central figures in the phenomenological movement are charted. Key figures such as Edmund Husserl, his sons Wolfgang and Gerhart, Max Scheler, Edith Stein, Adolf Reinach, Martin Heidegger, and others are included in this collection of materials. The volume includes reproductions of original material, as well as German transcription of all texts and their English translation.

Among the many books on the meaning and causes of the war in Europe this one of Professor Dewey has a unique place. His thesis may be stated in his own words: "Expressions which a bewildered world has sought since the beginning of the war to explain through the influence of a Darwinian struggle for existence and the survival of the fittest, or through the influence of a Nietzschean philosophy of power, have their roots in the classic idealistic philosophy culminating in Hegel." As the author says, however, it is somewhat hazardous to refer the secret of German national life to a particular theory in philosophy, but he makes the adventure. In the pursuance of his aim he turns to Kant to discover the principle which has most profoundly determined the Germanic idea of Morals and the State; this he finds in Kant's conception of the relation of freedom as an absolute supersensible principle of action to the realm of nature where physical causality rules, as the sphere within which all the purposes of free moral action are meant to be realized. While for Kant the will was thus an application of reason to action, according to Fichte reason was an expression of the will, and the world of nature and of human relations an expression of reason. The idealism which Kant had claimed for the individual, Fichte carried over to the State, transforming moral individualism into an ethical socialism. With a burning enthusiasm Fichte called upon the German people to establish a kingdom of the spirit and of reason, of science, morals, aim the State; and he did this with the conviction that if the German people go down in this endeavor humanity goes down with them without hope. This does not mean that mere might makes right, but that ideal right must clothe itself with might that so it may cease to be purely ideal. The divinity of the State makes patriotism a religion. As German history has been persistently idealized for the past hundred years, so the future of the German people under Prussian leadership is outlined from the same point of view. Hegel modified the idealism of his predecessors in the doctrine that the State is already the absolute reality, an absolute end in itself, with "supreme right in respect to individuals whose first duty is-just to be members of the State." "The State is God on earth." Yet not all States are on equal footing; the realization of the divine purpose moves from one nation to another; yet for any given time the bearer of the world-spirit is supreme, amenable to no law save from itself alone, compared with it the spirits of other nations are absolutely without right. War is the form by which this divine transition is signalized. It is naturally too early to formulate a definite theory of the war and the causes which are alone responsible for it. One can hardly question, however, that the full explanation must be sought in conditions as complex as human life and as national relations, of which, indeed, the philosophical and social idealism of the German people, especially of Prussia, are a factor. The size of this book is disproportionate to its value; and if one cared but little for its bearing on the great struggle in which the German Empire is engaged, he would still find rich and suggestive material for the interpretation of Kant as modified and fulfilled by Fichte and Hegel, in its bearing on the destiny of the individual and the nation. -The Homiletic Review, Volume 71

Electrifying when first delivered in 1973, legendary in the years since, Dieter Henrich's lectures on German Idealism were the first contact a major German philosopher had made with an American audience since the onset of World War II. They remain one of the most eloquent explanations and interpretations of classical German philosophy and of the way it relates to the concerns of contemporary philosophy. Thanks to the editorial work of David Pacini, the lectures appear here with annotations linking them to editions of the masterworks of German philosophy as they are now available. Henrich describes the movement that led from Kant to Hegel, beginning with an interpretation of the structure and tensions of Kant's system. He locates the Kantian movement and revival of Spinoza, as sketched by F. H. Jacobi, in the intellectual conditions of the time and in the philosophical motivations of modern thought. Providing extensive analysis of the various versions of Fichte's Science of Knowledge, Henrich brings into view a constellation of problems that illuminate the accomplishments of the founders of Romanticism, Novalis and Friedrich Schlegel, and of the poet Hölderlin's original philosophy. He concludes with an interpretation of the basic design of Hegel's system.

The story of German philosophy from the Middle Ages to today In an accessible narrative that explains complex ideas in clear language, Vittorio Hösle traces the evolution of German philosophy and describes its central influence on other aspects of German culture, including literature, politics, and science, from the Middle Ages to today. A Short History of German Philosophy addresses the philosophical changes brought about by Luther’s Reformation, and then presents a detailed account of German philosophy from Leibniz to Kant; the rise of a new form of humanities; and the German Idealists. The following chapters investigate the collapse of the German synthesis in Schopenhauer, Marx, and Nietzsche. Turning to the twentieth century, the book explores the rise of analytical philosophy; the foundation of the historical sciences; Husserl’s phenomenology and its radical alteration by Heidegger; the Nazi philosophers Gehlen and Schmitt; and the main West German philosophers after 1945. Arguing that there was a distinctive German philosophical tradition from the mid-eighteenth century to the mid-twentieth century, the book closes by examining why that tradition largely ended in the recent past. A philosophical history remarkable for its scope, brevity, and lucidity, this is an invaluable book for students of philosophy and anyone interested in German intellectual and cultural history.
