The Genesis of Neo-Kantianism, 1796-1880
Frederick C. Beiser tells the story of the emergence of neo-Kantianism from the late 1790s until the 1880s. He focuses on neo-Kantianism before official or familiar neo-Kantianism, i.e., before the formation of the various schools of neo-Kantianism in the 1880s and 1890s (which included the Marburg school, the Southwestern school, and the Göttingen school). Beiser argues that the source of neo-Kantianism lies in three crucial but neglected figures: Jakob Friedrich Fries,
Historicism and Its Problems
This is a translation of Ernst Troeltsch's last (1923) major work. It is an exhaustive study of the methods of historiography and of German, French, English, and Italian philosophies of history during the nineteenth century. It is motivated by the purpose of developing the proper concept of historical development, for overcoming "bad" historicism (i.e., unlimited relativism) with "good" historicism (with relativity, not relativism), and determining how values drawn from history can be used to shape the future. It concludes with a sketch of the unwritten second volume on the material philosophy of history.
Reading Max Weber's Sociology of Law
Max Weber's Sociology of Law evaluates the conditions in which modern legal systems were developed. Using recent research alongside history, this book provides a skilful overview of Weber's theories, layered with analysis and critique. A leading expert on Weber, Treiber provides invaluable insights as he dissects and expands on Weber's theories.
Hallowed Be Thy Name
This book fills a noticeable gap in Forsyth studies. It provides readers interested in the thought of Forsyth with a way of reading and critiquing his corpus, and that in a way that takes due account of, and elucidates, the theological, philosophical and historical locale of his thought. Goroncy explores whether the notion of 'hallowing' provides a profitable lens through which to read and evaluate Forsyth's soteriology. He suggests that the hallowing of God's name is, for Forsyth, the way whereby God both justifies himself and claims creation for divine service. This book proposes that reading Forsyth's corpus as essentially an exposition of the first petition of the Lord's Prayer is an invitation to better comprehend not only his soteriology but also, by extension, his broader theological vision and interests.
Wilhelm Windelband's Historical Philosophy
Within the broader reevaluation of the Neo-Kantian movement, this book undertakes the task of reconstructing Wilhelm Windelband's philosophical endeavor. Windelband's philosophical program was centered on the synthesis of two seemingly antithetical forces: transcendental philosophy and historical consciousness. He possessed a keen awareness of the intricacies inherent to historical thought and the compelling necessity to reformulate transcendental philosophy in terms of a true historical philosophy. This conceptual evolution ultimately steers his philosophical program away from its initial Neo-Kantian roots, giving rise to a novel strain of Neo-Hegelianism.
