Scottish Common Sense in Germany, 1768-1800: A Contribution to the History of Critical Philosophy

In: McGill-Queen's Studies in the History of Ideas

Abstract

Proponents of Scottish common-sense philosophy, especially Thomas Reid, James Oswald, and James Beattie, had a substantial influence on late enlightenment German philosophy. In this illuminating study Manfred Kuehn explores the nature and extent of that influence. He finds that the work of these philosophers was widely discussed in German philosophical journals and translated into German soon after its publication in Britain. Important German philosophers such as Mendelssohn, Lossius, Feder, Hamann, and Jacobi, representing the full range of philosophical positions, read the Scots and found valuable philosophical insights in their thought.
