The authors trace this concept from the philosophical crisis bequeathed by Kant to his successors, to its development by the central figures of the Athenaeum group: the Schlegel brothers, Schelling, and Novalis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis study situates the Jena romantics' \"fragmentary\" model of literature-a model of literature as the production of its own theory-in relation to the development of a post-Kantian conception of philosophy as the total and reflective auto-production of the thinking subject. Analyzing key texts of the period, the authors articulate the characteristics of romantic thought and at the same time show historical and systematic connections with modern literary theory. Thus, The Literary Absolute renews contemporary scholarship, showing the romantic origins of some of the leading issues in current critical theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhilippe Lacoue-Labarthe \u003c\/b\u003eand \u003cb\u003eJean-Luc Nancy \u003c\/b\u003eare philosophers who teach at the Université de Strasbourg. \u003cb\u003eCheryl Lester \u003c\/b\u003eis Assistant Professor of English at the University of Kansas. \u003cb\u003ePhilip Barnard \u003c\/b\u003eis Assistant Professor of Literature at American University.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 194\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 22, 2003\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47468529516797,"sku":"9780887066610","price":68.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/Mkd2Q0FyVHVFZXpod09pZzEzNjQ5dz09.webp?v=1777290379","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/the-literary-absolute-the-theory-of-literature-in-german-romanticism-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
