Frommann-holzboog Johann Gottlieb Fichte: Gesamtausgabe / Reihe IV: Kollegnachschriften. Band 1: Kollegnachschriften 1796–1798

Some of Fichte's lectures are available to us only in the form of transcripts made by those who attended these lectures. This includes the two transcripts contained in this volume: the ›Collegium über die Moral‹ of 1796 and ›Vorlesungen über Logik und Metaphysik‹ of 1797/98. When read in conjunction with Fichte's writings of the period 1792–1802 (see Vol. II/4), these transcripts provide valuable information concerning the gradual development of Fichte's transcendental philosophy up to the point reached in the ›Darstellung der Wissenschaftslehre‹ of 1801. They also reveal Fichte's views concerning formal logic, psychology, and philosophy of nature.
