THE DISCOVERY OF HISTORICITY IN GERMAN IDEALISM...

German Idealism develops its philosophy of history as the theory of becoming absolute and as
absolute knowledge. Historism also originates from Hegel's and Schelling's discovery of
absolute historicity as it turns against Idealism's philosophy of history by emphasizing the
singular and unique in the process of history. German Idealism and Historism can be considered
as the central German contribution to the history of ideas. Since Idealism became most
influential for modern philosophy and Historism for modern historiography  they are analyzed in
this volume in a collaboration of philosophers and historians. German Idealism is presented in
Schelling and its critics Schlegel  Baader  and Nietzsche  Historism in Ranke  Droysen 
Burckhardt  and Treitschke. The volume further presents the impact of Idealism and Historism on
present German approaches to the philosophy of history and outlines the debates on the
possibility of a philosophy of history and on the methodology of the historical sciences.
