Produktbeschreibung
History of Modern Philosophy, From Nicolas of Cusa to the Present Time, The predominantly practical aim of this History-it is intended to serve as an aid in introductory work, in reviewing, and as a substitute for dictations in academical lectures, as well as to be a guide for the wider circle of cultivated readers-has enjoined self-restraint in the development of personal views and the limitation of critical reflections in favor of objective presentation. It is only now and then that critical hints have been given. In the discussion of phenomena of minor importance it has been impossible to avoid the oratio obliqua of exposition; but, wherever practicable, we have let the philosophers themselves develop their doctrines and reasons, not so much by literal quotations from their works, as by free, condensed reproductions of their leading ideas. If the principiant view of the forces which control the history of philosophy, and of the progress of modern philosophy, expressed in the Introduction and in the Retrospect at the end of the book, have not been everywhere verified in detail from the historical facts, this is due in part to the limits, in part to the pedagogical aim, of the work.

Autorenporträt
Richard Falckenberg (1851-1920) was a distinguished German philosopher and historian of philosophy, renowned for his scholarly contributions to the understanding of modern thought. He was born in Breslau (now Wroclaw, Poland), and his academic journey led him to the University of Leipzig, where he was influenced by eminent philosophers of his time. Falckenberg's deep interest in the evolution of philosophical ideas culminated in his seminal work, 'History of Modern Philosophy,' first published in 1893. This book, which has been revered as a comprehensive guide, offers an insightful exposition of philosophical developments from the Renaissance to the 19th century. Characterized by its lucid prose and critical analysis, Falckenberg's history provides an in-depth study of key figures and intellectual movements, charting the transition of philosophy from scholastic thought to empiricism, rationalism, and beyond. His work has been instrumental for students and scholars alike in understanding the complex web of modern philosophy, and it continues to serve as a valuable resource for the historical study of Western philosophical tradition. Falckenberg's contributions extend not just to his literary works but also to his teaching, where he influenced a generation of thinkers through his academic positions at several German universities.
