This volume fills a lamentable gap in the philosophical literature by providing a collection of writings from the pivotal generation of thinkers between Kant and Hegel. It includes some of Hegel's earliest critical writings -- which reveals much about his thinking before the first mature exposition of his position in 1807 -- as well as Schelling's justification of the new philosophy of nature against sceptical and religious attack.
