This volume is dedicated to questions about the nature and method of metaphysics in Classical German Philosophy. Its chapters offer original investigations into the metaphysical projects of many of the major figures in German philosophy between Wolff and Hegel.The period of Classical German Philosophy was an extraordinarily rich one in the history of philosophy, especially for metaphysics. It includes some of the highest achievements of early modern rationalism, Kant's critical revolution, and the various significant works of German Idealism that followed in Kant's wake. The contributions to this volume critically examine certain common themes among metaphysical projects across this period, for example, the demand that metaphysics amount to a science, that it should be presented in the form of a system, or that it should proceed by means of demonstration from certain key first principles. This volume also includes material on influential criticisms of metaphysical projects of this kind.Metaphysics as a Science in Classical German Philosophy is a useful resource for contemporary metaphysicians and historians of philosophy interested in engaging with the history of the methodology and epistemology of metaphysics.
This book examines the influence of Hume, Reid, Smith, Hutcheson, and other Scottish Enlightenment thinkers on Kant's philosophy. It begins with the influence of these thinkers on Kant, then moves to an examination of the relationship between truth, freedom, and responsibility and its connection to Kant's metaphysics and aesthetics.
This collection of essays re-examines traditional interpretations of the rise of modern aesthetics in eighteenth-century Britain and Germany. It provides a new account that connects aesthetic experience with morality, science, and political society.
This book offers new perspectives on the theoretical elements of the Opus postumum. The contributors read the OP as a central work in establishing the relation between Kant's transcendental philosophy, his natural philosophy, practical philosophy, philosophy of religion, metaphysics, and his broader epistemology.
This book is the first devoted to Hume's conception of testimony. O'Brien looks wider than the miracles essay, turning to what Hume says about testimony in the Treatise, the moral Enquiry, the History of England and his Essays.
This book investigates various aspects of freedom as developed in the philosophical systems of Kant and Fichte.
This book focuses not only on interpretive issues related to the Kingdom of Ends, but also on practical applications that have the potential to advance discussions about the nature and foundations of rights, the content of moral principles, the importance of moral ideals and the nature of moral motivation.
This collection of essays challenges the prevailing assumption that eighteenth-century German philosophy prior to Kant was largely defined by post-Leibnizian rationalism and, accordingly, a low esteem of the cognitive function of the senses.

The essays disentangle complex exegetical knots that emerge in the interpretation of Kant's own views of the character of sensibility, the unity of nature, and the constitution of symbolic representation in religion.

This text charts the development of the concepts of soul and self in Western thought, from Plato to the present. It emphasizes the enormous intellectual transformation in the 18th century, when the religious "soul" was replaced first by a philosophical "self" and then by a scientific "mind".
This is a challenging exploration of the link between the work of David Hume and the eighteenth century empiricist background to the parallel history of aesthetics as it developed at the time.
The self for Kant is something real, and yet is neither appearance nor thing in itself, but rather has some third status. This book explains the 'third status' by identifying the self with intellectual action that does not arise in the progression of attending (and so is not appearance), but accompanies and unifies inner attending.
Aims to examine the extent and significance of the connection between Hume's aesthetics and his moral philosophy; and to consider how, in light of the connection, his moral philosophy answers central questions in ethics. This book concludes by showing how Hume's view of philosophy affects the scope of any normative ethics.
