This excellent book focuses on a decisive moment in Schelling’s philosophical development [...] Berger and Whistler show how much the two philosophers learn from each other despite their fundamental disagreements, and one senses their friendship and mutual respect. This volume makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the development of German Idealism—but it also provides a model for dialogue and philosophical collaboration.
- Mark J. Thomas, Journal of the History of Philosophy
An outstanding contribution to our understanding of Naturphilosophie, often thoughtlessly derided, that preoccupied Schelling and contemporary interlocutors such as Eschenmayer. Brilliant commentaries on the key texts here translated illuminate long obscured detail vital to a philosophical address to nature, creating an exemplary volume, unparalleled in any language.
