Présentation
In his diagnosis of the “crisis of culture” Georg Simmel also includes philosophy expressis verbis. As Simmel clarifies, it is in philosophy that a “crisis” manifests itself, which is characteristic of modern culture as a whole.
“Within the philosophical development the crisis seems to me to be more far-reaching than is ordinarily conceded. The basic concepts and methodical functions, which, having been cultivated since Hellenism, are applied to the world-material, in order to form philosophical worldviews from it, have, as I believe, achieved everything they were able to yield in this respect…; if the signs are not deceiving, the entire philosophical apparatus is in the beginnings of becoming a shell which is emptied of life.”
Simmel’s criticism of the philosophy of his time is the point of departure for our conference. From there we would like to make his relation to the history of philosophy the object of our deliberations. This seems so important to us, because Simmel therein expresses – at times more or less explicitly – what philosophy is or in his opinion should be – also as an answer to the detected crisis of philosophy. Especially Simmel’s reception of Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Schleiermacher and Goethe, Heraclitus and Meister Eckhart, will be examined in our conference.
We are thereby pursuing both a historical, as well as a systematic goal. Simmel has given not only path-breaking, but also quite disputable suggestions, which we, 100 years after Simmel’s death, would like to illuminate in their effect, their problematic nature and their relevance.
