Schelling's Aporetical Philosophy of History in the System of Transcendental Idealism
Lemaître, Jean-Christophe
Schelling's Aporetical Philosophy of History in the System of Transcendental Idealism - 2010.
46
The purpose of our survey is to highlight the aporetic character of Schelling’s treatment of the issue of history in his System of Transcendental Idealism. Such apory lies in the impossibility to make free will, which is the prerequisite for the phenomenalisation of liberty, compatible with necessity as a superior law unifying all individual will powers, and making them work toward the same purpose. The figures of improvisation and the tragic, through the prism of which Schelling envisions history coalesce into a form of historical pessimism which has two positive functions : to apprehend the practical in its absolute radicality and to understand the need for transcending itself into a philosophy of art.
