With his innovative research on Kant and German Idealism Eckart Förster has been a major
driving force in research on idealism for many years. In particular his works on Kant's 'Opus
postumum' and spatial schematism on intellectual intuition and intuitive understanding on
Fichte Hölderlin and Goethe on the genesis of Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit as well as on
the importance of Goethe for post-Kantian philosophy have received widespread attention. This
volume contains many of his most important essays from the last three decades.
