This tracks the major players in a conversation about the viability of reason as the basis of philosophy and points out a number of people who were influential at the time but which have become eclipsed by later people. I had not realized, but should have, that the practice of philosophy then was so much like it is today - personalities as well as positions - and that they had all interacted with each other on both levels. Beiser does not stress the personal level, but doesn't hide it either. He gives concise summaries of positions and arguments which make the whole discussion a consistent story. Remarkably to me, the whole debate fit inside a 15 year interval and most of it within 10. The issues being discussed, too, are of modern interest too - or at least I think they are. Being technology independent, the arguments are no less valid now than then - and no more either. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"The Fate of Reason is the first general history devoted to the period between Kant and Fichte, one of the most revolutionary and fertile in modern philosophy. The philosophers of this time broke with the two central tenets of the modern Cartesian tradition: the authority of reason and the primacy of epistemology. They also witnessed the decline of the Aufkl©Þrung, the completion of Kant ?s philosophy, and the beginnings of post-Kantian idealism. Thanks to Frederick C. Beiser we can newly appreciate the influence of Kant ?s critics on the development of his philosophy. Beiser brings the controversies, and the personalities who engaged in them, to life and tells a story that has uncanny parallels with the debates of the present."
