von Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi, herausgegeben von Walter JaeschkeThe commentary on the third volume of texts shows even more clearly than the letters themselves that Jacobi was attentively following political events which were under the influence of absolutism and criticized the absolute power of the rulers in writings which were published anonymously. In the spring of 1783 he was occupied with Spinoza’s almost forgotten, succinct destruction of traditional metaphysical concepts. In this volume, the correspondence, which caused a sensation at that time, is presented again in its chronological and biographical context, in many cases rendering it comprehensible for the first time. In addition to Wilhelm Heinse‘s brilliant descriptions, the correspondence with Johann Georg Hamann is the core of this edition. The letters of the third volume are carefully annotated, as are the other letters, and indexes of places, subjects and persons make the volume of texts as well as the volume of annotations accessible.
