Riassunto:

Wolfram Hogrebe offers a robust, uncompromisingly metaphysical reading of Schelling’s unfinished masterpiece, The Ages of the World, to propose a completely contemporary epistemology. By translating Schelling into the language of predicate logic and philosophy of language, Hogrebe also defends its metaphysical claims, equally foregrounding the relevance and challenges that Schelling’s work presents to contemporary analytic philosophy. Originally published 35 years ago, Hogrebe’s book remains ahead of his time. It masterfully bridges the analytic and continental divide – before most philosophers considered this a possibility – and successfully demonstrates Schelling’s contemporary relevance and vitality. Included in this translation is a new author’s preface to the English edition, his preface to the Italian translation (2011), an introduction to the philosophical themes of the book by the translators who are prominent Schelling scholars, a Postface by Markus Gabriel, Hogrebe’s colleague in Bonn, along with a readers’ guide to Hogrebe’s major works.
