Ian Hunter approaches philosophical doctrines as ways of fashioning personae for envisaged historical circumstances, here of confessional conflict and political desacralization. He treats the civil philosophy of Pufendorf and Thomasius and the metaphysical philosophy of Leibniz and Kant as rival intellectual cultures or paideiai, thereby challenging all histories premised on Kant's supposed reconciliation and transcendence of the field. This study reveals the extraordinary historical self-consciousness of the civil philosophers, who repudiated university metaphysics as inimical to the intellectual formation of those administering desacralized territorial states. The book argues that the marginalization of civil philosophy in post-Kantian philosophical history may itself be seen as a continuation of the struggle between the rival enlightenments. Combining careful and well-documented scholarship with vivid polemic, Hunter presents penetrating insights for philosophers and historians alike. 504 Includes bibliographical references (p. 377-391) and index. 650 0 Philosophy, German |xHistory. 600 10 Pufendorf, Samuel, |cFreiherr von, |d1632-1694. 600 10 Thomasius, Christian, |d1655-1728. 600 10 Leibniz, Gottfried Wilhelm, |cFreiherr von, |d1646-1716. 600 10 Kant, Immanuel, |d1724-1804. 776 |z0-521-02549-4 776 |z0-521-79265-7 830 0 Ideas in context. 906 BOOK
