Böcker i Routledge Studies in Eighteenth-Century Philosophy-serien

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.

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.

This book features engagements between Kant and various Asian philosophers. Key themes include the nature of human intuition, the status of Kant's idealism/realism, and Kant's notion of an object. Roughly half of the chapters take a stance on the recent conceptualism/non-conceptualism debate.

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".

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
