Publisher's Synopsis
New Exposition Of The Science Of Knowledge is a philosophical work by Johann Gottlieb Fichte, originally published in 1869. The book is an exposition of Fichte's philosophical system, which he developed in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Fichte's system is known as transcendental idealism, which posits that the mind is the source of all knowledge and that the world as we experience it is a product of the mind's activity. In this work, Fichte presents his system in a new and updated form, addressing some of the criticisms that had been leveled against it in the intervening years. He begins by discussing the nature of consciousness and the role it plays in the acquisition of knowledge. He then goes on to explore the relationship between the subject and the object of knowledge, arguing that the two are intimately connected and that the subject must actively create the object of knowledge in order to know it.Throughout the book, Fichte engages with a range of philosophical topics, including epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, and politics. He also draws on insights from other thinkers, such as Immanuel Kant and Friedrich Schelling, to develop his own ideas. Overall, New Exposition Of The Science Of Knowledge is a complex and challenging work that offers a detailed and systematic account of Fichte's philosophical system. It remains an important text in the history of philosophy and continues to be studied and debated by scholars today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
