German 364
The Idealist Revolution and Beyond
Full course for one semester. This seminar explores German
Idealism’s unparalleled influence on the study of literature and
the arts. Whether the topic is lyric poetry, mass culture, or the
theory of history, scarcely anybody in today’s humanities proceeds
without some engagement--implicit or explicit, positive or
negative, intentional or unwitting--with the forms and figures of
thought we find in Kant and his inheritors. Conducted in English.
Students may arrange with the instructor to take the class for
German credit. Prerequisite: sophomore standing. Conference.
Cross-listed as Literature 364. Not offered 2005-06.
