Fritz Medicus, On Being Human . The Life Of Truth And Its Realization: Book Review, Leo Schelbert
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
This is a difficult book, the summary of a philosopher's final insights into "Truth and Its Realization". In a language simulataneously straightforward and compledx, questions of logic, ethics, and ultimate values are discussed, all within a tight network of post-Kantian, partly scholastic (that is Judeo-Christianized Aristotelian), Partly idealist (especially Fichtean) concepts. The study demands much patience and willingess to follow a sustained arguement which starts with a critique of phenomenological assumptions and culminates in a redefinition of religion as the domain not of credal structures but of ultimate concern.
