This new and accessible translation of the 19th-century German philosopher Johann Gottlieb Fichte is essential reading for any student of "the complete Fichte".
Presented as a series of eleven "popular" lectures on the philosophy of religion, Fichte's Guide to the Blessed Life (1806) holds a special place in his oeuvre. As the first public presentation of his views on religion since his stormy dismissal from Jena on charges of atheism, it is Fichte's main contribution to the philosophy of religion and the best introduction to his later thought.
Taking advantage of modern Fichte scholarship and the historical-critical edition of his works, Brady Bowman presents the first English translation of Guide to the Blessed Life since the 19th century. Accompanied by an introduction, glossary and notes from the translator, the text grants insight into Fichte's thinking on atheism in the aftermath of the Jena controversy.
His lectures represent a new phase in the German Idealist response to Spinoza's pantheistic conception of the intellectual love of God as a kind of intuitive science, a response directly comparable to those of Hegel in the Phenomenology of Spirit and Schelling in the Freedom Essay. Key themes from Fichte's better-known early work come together here in a common focus: the intimate relation of speculative thought to lived experience, the rigorous derivation of forms of consciousness from an original act of self-differentiation, and the re-establishment of a notion of the absolute at the center of transcendental philosophy.
Now available in English, this critical translation opens up an under-studied document of philosophical creativity from a pivotal phase of German Idealist thought. The Guide is Fichte at the height of his powers -as a public orator, a metaphysician and phenomenological observer of human consciousness, an interpreter of Scripture, and as a moralist and social critic.
