| Publisher Description: Recent years have witnessed a resurgence of scholarly interest in the work of Johann Georg Hamann (1730-1788), across disciplines. New translations of work by and about Hamann are appearing, as are a number of books and articles on Hamann's aesthetics, theories of language and sexuality, and unique place in Enlightenment and counter-Enlightenment thought. Edited by Lisa Marie Anderson, Hamann and the Tradition gathers established and emerging scholars to examine the full range of Hamann's impact--be it on German Romanticism or on the very practice of theology. Of particular interest to those not familiar with Hamann will be a chapter devoted to examining--or in some cases, placing--Hamann in dialogue with other important thinkers, such as Socrates, David Hume, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Buber, Franz Rosenzweig, and Ludwig Wittgenstein. |
