His influential text \u003cem\u003eVon den göttlichen Dingen und Ihrer Offenbarung\u003c\/em\u003e aroused the final debate about the intrinsic nihilism of modern philosophy, which, he postulated, ran the risk of becoming a serious threat to human life and intellect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the first English translation of this text,* On the Divine Things and Their Revelation*, Paolo Livieri provides readers with a historical investigation of the debates that preceded and followed Jacobi’s book, as well as a philosophical review of its main topics and arguments. Jacobi’s concluding analysis against systematic philosophy, given at the closing of the era of German idealism, offers an overview of the possibility of connecting the human and the divine according to the metaphysical approach that he develops into theism. This philosophical testament revives the divisive ideas of his first publications and provides new insights into his critique of Baruch Spinoza’s philosophy, yielding a final evaluation of Immanuel Kant’s transcendental method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBringing together Jacobi’s most famous themes – from faith to revelation and nihilism to immediate knowledge – \u003cem\u003eOn the Divine Things and Their Revelation\u003c\/em\u003e expresses his tireless commitment to situating the human being at the centre of reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55091474235766,"sku":"9780228022770","price":96.62,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_40558670.jpg?v=1775069645","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780228022770-on-the-divine-things-and-their-revelatio","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
