Left-Kantianism in the Marburg School
Widmer sheds light on a neglected aspect of the Western philosophical tradition. Following an era of Hegelianism, the members of the neo-Kantian "Marburg School," such as Friedrich Albert Lange, Hermann Cohen, Rudolf Stammler, Paul Natorp, and Ernst Cassirer defended socialism or left-wing ideals on Kantian principles. In doing so, Widmer breaks with two mistaken assumptions. First, Widmer demonstrates that the left-Hegelian and Marxist traditions were not the only significant philosophical sources of socialist critique in nineteenth-century Germany, as the left-Kantians identified problems of normativity that the left-Hegelians could not adequately address. Second, Widmer challenges the prevailing assumption that the political philosophies developed in the Marburg School can be comprehensively characterized as a unified school of "ethical socialism." By showing that they varied fundamentally regarding their political views and their philosophical foundations of socialism, Widmer fills a gap in the studies of neo-Kantianism that is long overdue.
Instruments in Art and Science
This volume presents a collection of original papers at the intersection of philosophy, the history of science, cultural and theatrical studies. Based on a series of case studies on the 17th century, it contributes to an understanding of the role played by instruments at the interface of science and art. The papers pursue the hypothesis that the development and construction of instruments make a substantive contribution to the openingof new fields of knowledge, the development of new cultural practices, but also to the delineation of particular genres, methods, and disciplines. This perspective leads the authors to reflect anew on whatactually defines an instrument and to develop a series of...
The A to Z of Kant and Kantianism
Few philosophers stand out as boldly as Immanuel Kant. While he did not write as much as others, his principle works, Critique of Pure Reason, Critique of Practical Reason, and Critique of Judgment, are known worldwide. During his time, schools of Kantianism quickly sprang up and were later joined by schools of Neokantianism. Admittedly, not all of Kant's concepts have aged well, but many are still taught among the basics of philosophy today and therefore must be known by every student. The A to Z of Kant and Kantianism provides a comprehensive dictionary that will aid not only students, but also teachers and the general public, since it contains hundreds of entries describing Kant's life and works, and explaining his concepts as well as the contributions of his followers (and also some opponents). Furthermore, much of the writings of the Neokantians, as well as the literature dealing with this movement, are not available in English, thus, this book provides an introduction to this phenomenon to the English-language reader. Given the inevitable problems of language, the glossary is particularly helpful, while the bibliography makes the massive amounts of literature more accessible.

Hermann Cohen
Der Band dokumentiert die Rezeptions- und Wirkungsgeschichte des Werkes von Hermann Cohen im Zeitraum 1912-1980. In den älteren der hier wieder zugänglich gemachten Arbeiten spiegelt sich die noch persönlich erlebte Ausstrahlungskraft des 1918 verstorbenen Philosophen: Cassirer, Rosenzweig und Reuter lassen ein farbiges Bild seiner Persönlichkeit entstehen. Weiter sind einschlägige Zeugnisse der Textauslegung, meist Meilensteine der Cohen-Interpretation, abgedruckt. In ihnen werden Cohens Systematik und Erkenntnistheorie (Hartmann, Natorp, Bergmann, Ritzel, Adelmann, Holzhey), seine Ethik (Ebbinghaus, Ollig, Winter) und politische Philosophie (Schwarzschild, Lübbe) sowie seine Religionsphilosophie (Herrmann, Kellermann, Rosenzweig, Altmann) beleuchtet. Die Einleitung zeichnet die dreiphasige Geschichte der Cohen-Auslegung nach und zieht ein erstes Facit - im Bewußtsein, daß die Wirkungsgeschichte Cohens noch keineswegs abgeschlossen ist.
