Abstract

The natural reality of species extinctions throughout geological time provides challenges for philosophy and human self-understanding. This chapter explores how these realities first became undeniable during the era of German Idealism. Tracing the development of relevant scientific ideas since then, the renewed relevance of extinction for contemporary theory is discussed.
