Schelling Freedom And The Immanent Made Transcendent Daniele Fulvi by Daniele Fulvi; instant download after payment.

This book offers a cutting-edge interpretation of the philosophy of F.W.J. Schelling by critically reconsidering the interpretations of some of his â••successors.â•• It argues that Schellingâ••s philosophy should be read as an ontology of immanence, highlighting its relevance for ongoing debates on ethics and freedom.The book builds on a key notion from Schellingâ••s Philosophy of Revelation where he outlines the process through which transcendence must return to immanence in order to be grasped and understood. The author identifies Jaspers, Heidegger, and Deleuze as the main interpreters of Schellingâ••s philosophical activity, highlighting their relevance for subsequent Schelling scholarship. Heidegger and Jaspers refer to Schellingâ••s philosophy in negative terms, namely as an incomplete and unviable philosophical system, whereas Deleuze holds the immanent core of Schellingâ••s ontological discourse in high regard. The authorâ••s analysis demonstrates that reading Schellingâ••s philosophy as an ontology of immanence not only avoids Heideggerâ••s and Jaspersâ••s criticisms but is also more fitting to Schellingâ••s original meaning. Accordingly, his reading allows us to fully grasp Schellingâ••s thought in all its strength and consistency: as a philosophy that avoids metaphysical abstractions and maintains the concreteness of concepts like God, nature, freedom by binding them to a solid and material account of Being. Finally, the author uses Schelling to propose an innovative reading of freedom as a matter of resistance and of philosophy as an activity whose main purpose is that of seeking the actual extent and place of (human) life and freedom within nature. The author originally emphasises the relevance of these conclusions on contemporary debates in Postcolonial Critical Theory and Environmental Ethics.Schelling, Freedom, and the Immanent Made Transcendent. From Philosophy of Nature to Environmental Ethics will appeal to scholars and advanced students working in 19th-century Continental philosophy, German idealism, and Postcolonial Critical Theory and Environmental Ethics.
