Description: GERMAN LANGUAGE BOOK HEINRICH JACOBYJenseits von 'Begabt' und 'Unbegabt' Zweckmäßige Fragestellung und zweckmäßiges Verhalten: Schlüssel für die Entfaltung des Menschen Edited by SOPHIE LUDWIGPublished by Christians, Hamburg, 1981. Third revised edition. German language text. Very good hardcover, in very good dustjacket. Tight binding, solid spine, clean unmarked text. Illustrated, 4to, 306 pages. Psychology, philosophy, psychotherapy, rationalism, nihilism, human development, art, music. Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi (b. 1743, d. 1819) was a critic of both modern philosophy and its offspring (the rationalism of German late Enlightenment), of Kant’s transcendental idealism, of Fichte’s systematic philosophy, and eventually of Schelling’s idealism. He was initially not regarded as a first–rate philosopher, but he had the natural talent of asking the right question: has philosophy forgotten the difference between conditions of conceptualization and conditions of existence? Has it forgotten that explanations must start with what cannot be further explained? Has it forgotten that thinking and being are different? Jacobi intended to amend this mistake; hence he channeled his efforts toward a philosophical definition of existence. By focusing on existence, in the form of the individual agent, his philosophy drew a solitary path that led to the universe of the living, populated by singular subjects, a personal God, and a divine order of values. Jacobi put in circulation expressions and themes that resonate to this day (di Giovanni, 1994: 115).He was the one who forged the philosophical meaning of the concept of ‘nihilism,’ marking a difference from its religious connotation. In his vocabulary, nihilism was the necessary outcome of all philosophy after Aristotle. Though he never considered himself an irrationalist, he was accused of attacking reason and reintroducing conservative values. In truth, he criticized the instrumental use of reason and the discursive shape of reasoning. Instead, he promoted a different array of notions that would eventually unearth the possibility to conceive reality anew.
