Publisher Description:
English summary: This volume contains Reinhold's correspondence from 1793. This was the year in which Lavater acted as an intermediary in obtaining Reinhold the offer of a professorship in Kiel, which was to usher in a defining development in his career. The letters presented here are devoted to this fateful turning point. In addition, the political backdrop with the dramatic events in France (the execution of Louis XVI) played a decisive role throughout (see Reinhold's article about the French Revolution published in the German Mercury). During this time Reinhold was also focusing intensively on the subject of free will. The discovery of Fichte and his Critique of All Revelation, which was published anonymously, was of particular importance to him. His most important correspondents included Baggesen, Erhard, Jacobi, Kant, Lavater, Carl Christian Erhard Schmid and Wieland. This volume contains a bibliography, detailed indexes of subjects, persons and places as well as lists of Reinhold's written works and reviews from 1793. German description: Dieser Band enthalt Reinholds Korrespondenz von 1793. In diesem Jahr ergeht an Reinhold uber Lavaters Vermittlung der Ruf nach Kiel, der in seiner Laufbahn einen entscheidenden Einschnitt einleiten wird. Die Briefe stehen schon unter dem Zeichen dieser schicksalshaften Wende. Ferner spielt die politische Kulisse mit den dramatischen Ereignissen in Frankreich (Hinrichtung Ludwigs XV.) durchgehend eine erhebliche Rolle (siehe auch Reinholds Merkur-Aufsatz uber die Franzosische Revolution). In dieser Periode beschaftigt sich Reinhold auch intensiv mit dem Thema der Willensfreiheit. Von besonderer Bedeutung ist fur ihn die Entdeckung von Fichte und dessen anonym veroffentlichter Offenbarungsschrift. Wichtige Briefpartner sind u. a. Baggesen, Erhard, Jacobi, Kant, Lavater, Carl Christian Erhard Schmid und Wieland. Der Band enthalt eine Bibliographie, ausfuhrliche Sach-, Personen- und Ortsregister, sowie Verzeichnisse der Schriften und Rezensionen Reinholds aus dem Jahre 1793.
