Research Project, 1957–2008
A project of the
Academy, since 1759
Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities
The task of the project is to produce a critical edition of the works, the handwritten estate and correspondence of the philosopher Johann Gottlieb Fichte (1762 - 1814). This represents an essential contribution to the visualisation of German philosophy of Classicism and an instrument of current worldwide philosophical discussion. In addition, „Kollegnachschriften“ are published in a separate series as well as contemporary evidence on Fichte in the series "Fichte im Gespräch" and reviews of Fichte's works in the series "Fichte in zeitgenössischen Rezensionen".
