The Philosophy of the Enlightenment and its Critics (Hegel, Heidegger, neo-Aristotelianism, etc.)

Project manager: Prof. Dr. Heiner F. Klemme

Duration of project: ongoing

For this project, representative comments on the philosophy of the Enlightenment will be examined and discussed on the basis of their factual and philosophical content. A focal point of the project will be practical philosophy and the theory of subjectivity. G.W.F. Hegel, Hannah Arendt, Martin Heidegger, Philippa Foot, Elisabeth Anscombe and John McDowell will be among the philosophers under study.
