Abstract

1975 is the bicentenary of Schelling’s birth. The first volume of the long-awaited Gesamtausgabe and the third volume of the Correspondance should have appeared by the time this review has been printed. Meanwhile, however, a highly interesting Italian publishing venture - directed so competently and devotedly by Luigi Pareyson - has yielded new fruit. After the textual editions of the Begrundung der positiven Philosophie and of the Stuttgarter Privatvorlesungen, we now have been offered a huge, beautifully printed volume of texts on Schelling. It is the result of the immense labor and incomparable scholarship of X. Tilliette.
