Abstract

We propose Fichtean theoretical philosophy as the unifying theme of the following essays, which are all devoted to the second phase of Fichte’s Berlin period. Each of the authors has freely interpreted this theme in their own manner, but with the clear effort to return to the genetic nucleus or foundation of this philosophy. In this sense the expression ‘theoretical philosophy’ should not be understood in opposition to practical philosophy, as if it were a question of a genetic understanding of representation that is distinct from an understanding of the effort and approach that Fichte had adopted, for example, in the Foundations of the Entire Wissenschaftslehre of 1794-95. The term theoretical philosophy is to be understood here in a much broader and more general sense, one that is familiar in the Italian philosophical tradition; namely, in the sense of fundamental philosophy, where thought is concerned with the underlying structure of reality and life, with its “elements” and constituent principles.
