Irony and Idealism investigates the historical and conceptual structure of the development of a philosophically distinctive conception of irony in early- to mid-nineteenth century European philosophy. The principal figures treated are the romantic thinkers Friedrich Schlegel and Novalis, Hegel, and Kierkegaard. Fred Rush argues that the development of philosophical irony in this historical period is best understood as providing a way forward in philosophy in the wake of Kant and Jacobi that is discrete from, and many times opposed to, German idealism. Irony and Idealism argues, against the grain of received opinion, that among the German romantics Schlegel's conception of irony is superior to similar ideas found in Novalis. It also presents a sustained argument showing that historical reconsideration of Schlegel has been hampered by contestable Hegelian assumptions concerning the conceptual viability of romantic irony and by the misinterpretation of what the romantics mean by 'the absolute.' Rush argues that this is primarily a social-ontological term and not, as is often supposed, a metaphysical concept. Kierkegaard, although critical of the romantic conception, deploys his own adaptation of it in his criticism of Hegel, continuing, and in a way completing, the arc of irony through nineteenth-century philosophy. The book concludes by offering suggestions meant to guide contemporary reconsideration of Schlegel's and Kierkegaard's views on the philosophical significance of irony.

The purpose of this book is to analyze some ideal concepts such as love, justice, war, law and honesty by taking the term "irony" into consideration in Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida, All's Well That Ends Well and Measure for Measure. Based upon these analyses, it has been asserted that Shakespeare criticized the values that his society has ironically through these plays. Based upon the views of critics, some information about "problem plays" has been given in the introduction part. In Troilus and Cressida, it has been explained how the themes of war and love are juxtaposed. All's Well That Ends Well is the second play of the book and it has been asserted that themes of love and honesty have been reflected ironically. The last play to be dealt with is Measure for Measure. In this play, it has been emphasized that there may occur disorders in the society if the laws are not applied properly. As a consequence, Shakespeare's manipulations of the related values and his way of employing "idealism" ironically in the plays lies in the basis of this book.

The works of Andrei Platonov embody the dialectic of his era. They deal with the major elements which defined and dictated Soviet life and literature in the 1920s and 1930s. The legacy of the Stalinist period is deeply implicated in contemporary Russian society, where larger patterns of cultural adjustment are still in play. There is revived interest, therefore, both in Russia and the West, in re-evaluating this complex time and author. This book is particularly concerned with providing an examination of the nature and use of irony in the works of Platonov in relation to idealism, as it would be difficult to find in any of his writings an instance of irony that is not, in some way, connected with Soviet idealism. The opposition idealism as irony/irony as idealism describes Platonov's ironic approach to idealism, and his employment of a dichotomic style in order to convey his dialectical way of thinking.

Hegel's critique of Early German Romanticism and its theory of irony resonates to the core of his own philosophy in the same way that Plato's polemics with the Sophists have repercussions that go to the centre of his thought. The Anti-Romantic examines Hegel's critique of Fr. Schlegel, Novalis and Schleiermacher. Hegel rarely mentions these thinkers by name and the texts dealing with them often exist on the periphery of his oeuvre. Nonetheless, individually, they represent embodiments of specific forms of irony: Schlegel, a form of critical individuality; Novalis, a form of sentimental nihilism; Schleiermacher, a monstrous hybrid of the other two. The strength of Hegel's polemical approach to these authors shows how irony itself represents for him a persistent threat to his own idea of systematic Science. This is so, we discover, because Romantic irony is more than a rival ideology; it is an actual form of discourse, one whose performative objectivity interferes with the objectivity of Hegel's own logos. Thus, Hegel's critique of irony allows us to reciprocally uncover a Hegelian theory of scientific discourse. Far from seeing irony as a form of consciousness overcome by Spirit, Hegel sees it as having become a pressing feature of his own contemporary world, as witnessed in the popularity of his Berlin rival, Schleiermacher. Finally, to the extent that ironic discourse seems, for Hegel, to imply a certain world beyond his own notion of modernity, we are left with the hypothesis that Hegel's critique of irony may be viewed as a critique of post-modernity.

There are moments in life when we discover the fallacies in some prior teachings we have received. Such moments, tend to lay caution to youthful idealism and are replaced by new realities. These realities may rattle the foundations of our ideological and spiritual underpinning, but, they still enter our lives and minds without fail.

The Literary Absolute is the first authoritative study of the emergence of the modern concept of literature in German romanticism. The authors trace this concept from the philosophical crisis bequeathed by Kant to his successors, to its development by the central figures of the Athenaeum group: the Schlegel brothers, Schelling, and Novalis. This study situates the Jena romantics' "fragmentary" model of literature—a model of literature as the production of its own theory—in relation to the development of a post-Kantian conception of philosophy as the total and reflective auto-production of the thinking subject. Analyzing key texts of the period, the authors articulate the characteristics of romantic thought and at the same time show historical and systematic connections with modern literary theory. Thus, The Literary Absolute renews contemporary scholarship, showing the romantic origins of some of the leading issues in current critical theory.
