This is another contribution from one of the most impressive series of recent German scholarship on German Idealism. In this volume Fichte scholars add a definitive edition of incidental papers from a transitional period in Fichte's later career. This period was complicated by the progress of the Napoleonic wars, and the need for Fichte to relocate temporarily in Königsberg. Among the longer pieces in the volume one finds: "Bericht über den Begriff der Wissenschaftslehre und die bisherigen Schicksale derselben" ; "Wissenschaftslehre (...) Königsberg" ; "Nebenbemerkungen zu 1" ; "Realbemerkungen bei Machiavelli" ; "Die Republik der Deutschen" ; and "Bei Lektüre von Pestalozzis Buch, 'Wie Getrud ihre Kinder lehrt'". In addition to extensive notes and helpful introductory remarks, the volume contains a detailed index. (shrink)

Since 1962 a group of researchers at the Bavarian Academy of Sciences under the leadership of Reinhard Lauth has been publishing the collected works of Johann Gottlieb Fichte. The Academy edition proceeds chronologically in four parallel series: series 1 contains the works published by Fichte himself; series 2 contains unpublished works; series 3 contains the correspondence; and series 4 contains transcripts of Fichte’s lectures from other hands. The edition is now nearing completion. No other philosophical editorial project worldwide can match (...) it in terms of scope and execution. (shrink)
