This introduction presents a serious and reliable dialogue partner for current issues. Whether the issue at stake is the interpretation of the environmental crisis not as a crisis of nature but as a crisis of human beings themselves, the current discussion on monotheism or polytheism, or a modern explanation of genius, the reader will find answers in Schelling‹s works. Using key terms, Jacobs shows Schelling to be a consistent thinker of freedom, thus showing the reader how this runs like a common thread through Schelling‹s philosophy. As a co-editor of the historico-critical Schelling edition and co-founder of the International Schelling Society, Gesellschaft, Jacobs, in his knowledgeable and inventive manner, inspires us to read Schelling.weiterlesen
