Mathematische und naturwissenschaftliche Modelle in der Philosophie Schellings und Hegels

Meer over het boek

In their philosophical texts, Schelling and Hegel used mathematical and scientific models such as Unendlichkeit (infinity) or Gleichgewicht (balance). The structures of these terms provide a criterion for comparing the positions of Schelling and Hegel, a comparison conducted for Schelling‹s identity philosophy and Hegel‹s first Jena writings. The most significant result of this comparison is the proof of a fundamental difference between both positions around 1801. It is shown that this was based on differing conceptions of the role of the absolute.
