Book Description
This volume presents the first complete translation of Fichte Studies, a powerful, creative and sustained critique of Fichtean philosophy by the young philosopher-poet Friedrich von Hardenberg, who under the pen-name Novalis went on to become the most well-known and beloved of the early German Romantic writers. Anyone interested in the fate of German philosophy and literature immediately after Kant will find this collection of notes and aphorisms a treasure-trove of original contributions on the nature of self-consciousness, the relation of art to philosophy, and the nature of philosophical inquiry.

Novalis "Fichte Studies"
Author: Géza von MolnárThe Fichtean Dynamic of Novalis' Poetics
Author: Richard W. HannahPublisher: Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
The unmistakable modernity of Novalis' poetics derives its dynamic force from its adherence to the philosophical movement of German Idealism. Yet few studies of Novalis' works go beyond a cursory reference to J.G. Fichte's Grundlage der gesamten Wissenschaftslehre. This study breaks with traditional Novalis scholarship by laying bare and underscoring Novalis' close reading of all of Fichte's early works. After a brief chapter elucidating Fichte's concept of the imagination the bulk of the work is devoted to in-depth analyses of three key notions constitutive of Novalis' poetics: the sign, time and chance (Zufall). The final chapter weaves the strands of previous discussion into a coherent whole by examining the central concept in Novalis' poetics Gemut. The volume enriches our understanding of Fichte's philosophy, Novalis' poetics and that watershed era of modernity: German Romanticism."

Book Description
This first volume of Novalis Studies a la Fichte are not about Fichte, but rather original thought-exercises after Fichte's manner. Thus these studies, not intended for publication, were a kind of propaedeutic. Although not globally rigorous - they do not attempt to offer a single, coherent argument - they are locally highly rigorous.

Book Description
Novalis: Philosophical Writings is the first extensive scholarly translation in English from the philosophical work of the late eighteenth-century German Romantic writer Novalis (Friedrich von Hardenberg). His original and innovative thought explores many questions that are current today, such as truth and objectivity, reason and the imagination, language and mind, and revolution and the state. The translation includes two collections of fragments published by Novalis in 1798, Miscellaneous Observations and Faith and Love, and the controversial essay Christendom or Europe. In addition there are substantial selections from his unpublished notebooks, including Logological Fragments, the General Draft for an encyclopedia, the Monologue on language, and the essay on Goethe as scientist.
Notes for a Romantic Encyclopaedia

Book Description
Novalis is best known in history as the poet of early German Romanticism. However, this translation of Das Allgemeine Brouillon, or "Universal Notebook," finally introduces him to the English-speaking world as an extraordinarily gifted philosopher in his own right and shatters the myth of him as a mere daydreaming and irrational poet. Composed of more than 1,100 notebook entries, this is easily Novalis's largest theoretical work and certainly one of the most remarkable and audacious undertakings of the "Golden Age" of German philosophy. In it, Novalis reflects on numerous aspects of human culture, including philosophy, poetry, the natural sciences, the fine arts, mathematics, mineralogy, history, and religion, and brings them all together into what he calls a "Romantic Encyclopaedia" or "Scientific Bible." Novalis's Romantic Encyclopaedia fully embodies the author's own personal brand of philosophy, "Magical Idealism." With meditations on mankind and nature, the possible future development of our faculties of reason, imagination, and the senses, and the unification of the different sciences, these notes contain a veritable treasure trove of richly poetic and philosophic thoughts.
The Way of Novalis

Pages : 217
Book Description
Recent translations of Novalis’s work into English should occasion fresh endeavours in the field of Novalis studies, aimed at English readers who are without German. In this book John O’Meara presents his own understanding of what Novalis offers to these readers, who have been given firmer access to his life and to his philosophical works than ever before. O’Meara traces Novalis’s philosophical development meticulously, finishing up with an in-depth analysis of his Hymns to the Night, the Spiritual Songs, and his main and unfinished novel, Henry von Ofterdingen. Emphasis is on the process by which Novalis’s literary works manifest as direct expressions of his philosophical explorations, which bear fruit, eventually, in visions of sweeping majesty and annunciatory grandeur.
