 J. G. FICHTE - LoveToKnow Article on J. G. FICHTE
FICHTE - LoveToKnow Article on J. It follows that no revealed religion, so far as matter or substance is concerned, can contain anything beyond this law; nor can any fact in the world of experience be recognized by us as supernatural.
Not that it is a natural history, or even a phenomenology of consciousness; only in the later writings did Fichte adopt even the genetic method of exposition; it is the complete statement of the pure principles of the understanding in their rational or necessary order.
The supernatural element in religion can only be the divine character of the moral law.

 Peter Suber, "Fichte's Ad Hominem Arguments"
Fichte's second argument against argument is that the free self posited by the idealist must be recognized or appropriated as oneself, by oneself, not demonstrated by argument.
Fichte even uses the futility of argument as an argument.
Fichte wishes to assert idealism categorically but, as we shall see, it will be much more like Kant's assertion of God's existence than Kant's assertion of, say, the transcendental unity of apperception: an assertion by practical reason of what may remain hypothetical for speculative reason.

 IMMANUEL HERMANN VON FICHTE - LoveToKnow Article on IMMANUEL HERMANN VON FICHTE
Fichte's Letters of this period attest the influence exercised on him by the study of Kant.
Indirectly, indeed, Kant had indicated a very definite opinion on theology: from the Critique of Pure Reason it was clear that for him speculative theology must be purely negative, while the Critique of Practical Reason as clearly indicated the view that the moral law is the absolute content or substance of any religion.
Religion itself is the belief in this moral law as divine, and such belief is a practical postulate, necessary in order to add force to the law.

 Johann Gottlieb Fichte [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
This element of Christian theology, which is said to be grounded in the revelations contained in the Bible, is hardly compatible with the view of justice underwritten by the moral law.
As a result, Fichte is sometimes said to have taken a religious turn in the Berlin period.
In this fledgling effort Fichte adhered to many of Kant's claims about morality and religion by thoughtfully extending them to the concept of revelation.

 [No title]
Like Kierkegaard, Fichte regards despair as the opposite of faith, though for Fichte this is a faith in God and immortality held on moral grounds (GA I/5:306, 429).
The world, according to Fichte, is the image (Bild) of God (SW 11:117).
If Fichte derives the ubiquitous certainty of the I from pre-reflective self-awareness, that does not mean that he intends to exclude reflective self-awareness from the first principle.

 ACJ Article: Johann Gottlieb Fichte's Free Speech Theory
Fichte believed, "if man is to be at all, there must be men."5 In order for there to be "men" then all individuals must be educated.
The philosophical platform advocated by Fichte stood along side a variety of Enlightenment philosophers who were frustrated both by the general ignorance of the people and by the circumstances of their repression by the government.
Fichte urged people to seek knowledge to obtain wisdom, assist in informing or persuading others, crystallize personal beliefs, and seek a moral life.

 The Popular Works of Johann Gottlieb Fichte
Wissenschaftslehre, but is Fichte’s effort, especially in Lecture 6, to assimilate the standpoint of his philosophy to that of ‘true religion’: more specifically, to show that the implications of his philosophy with respect to human ‘blessedness’ are consistent with the doctrines of the ‘gospel of love’ that he associates with Johannine Christianity.
On the contrary, well before he became a philosophical or transcendental idealist, he was already an ‘idealist’ in the broader, popular sense of the term: namely, an avid social and spiritual reformer in the tradition of the late Enlightenment.
The Scientific discourse presupposes in the hearer an entanglement in the meshes of error, and addresses itself to a diseased and perverted spiritual nature; — the Popular discourse presupposes an open and candid mind, and appeals to a healthy although not sufficiently cultivated, spiritual nature.

All Knowledge is by virtue of God, and the Ego is first manifested in the form of a primitive Intuition, and "this Power, which now through perception and recognition of itself has become an Ego".

Because it came from the same publisher as Kant's work, and because Kant's philosophy of religion was eagerly awaited, the public supposed that the work was his.

 Fichte's Science of Knowledge
Fichte says that there is a difference between selfhood and individuality.
Fichte notes that his philosophy of existence differs from that of Descartes, whose famous dictum, "cogito, ergo sum" ("I think, therefore I am") asserted that to think is to exist.
Fichte explains that the Science of Knowledge begins with the self as a direct intuition, and that it ends with the self as an idea.

 Fichte's Outlines of the Doctrine of Knowledge
THE Doctrine of Knowledge, apart from all special and definite knowing, proceeds immediately upon Knowledge itself, in the essential unity in which it recognises Knowledge as existing; and it raises this question in the first place - How this Knowledge can come into being, and what it is in its inward and essential Nature?
From The Popular Works of Johann Gottlieb Fichte, translated by William Smith, Pub: Trubner and Co., 1889.

 The Philosophers.
A disciple of Kant, Fichte has been categorised as the founder of the Idealist school.
To Fichte there is Self, Ego; and there is the rest of the world, nonEgo.
Members of this school, much impressed with Kant's primacy of Practical Reason, are dedicated servants to the notion of state power.

 Idealism
By eliminating all references to material objects as even potential things in themselves, Fichte left room for nothing but minds in the noumenal realm.
What we must acknowledge, Schelling believed, is that there is a perfect parallel between the world of nature and the structure of our awareness of it—"Nature reflects Consciousness." Of course this cannot be true of my individual ego, though, since the world does not invariably conform to my own thought about it.
Kant's accounts of causality and teleology are not enough to explain the connection between the object and our knowing of it, and Fichte's explanation in wholly mental terms granted too little reality to the realm of the natural object.

 The Popular Works of Johann Gottlieb Fichte
Most contemporary readers will be drawn to On the Nature of the Scholar and its Manifestations, The Characteristics of the Present Age, and The Way Towards the Blessed Life or The Doctrine of Religion.
This fact alone gives Fichte's growing number of devotees reason to be grateful to Thoemmes Press for the work that it has done in reprinting these books.
William Smith was an able translator of Fichte's writings, and so readers of these two volumes need not worry about the fact that the texts contained in them appeared a century and a half ago.

From there his dialectical logic led to the postulation of a moral will of the universe, a God or absolute ego from which all eventually derives and which therefore unites all knowing.
Although he was in political disrepute in his own day and after the reaction of 1815, he became a hero not only to the revolutionaries of 1848 but also to the conservatives of 1871.

If these qualities are dulled by admixture and worn away by friction, the flatness that results will bring about a separation from spiritual nature, and this in its turn will cause all men to~be fused together in their uniform and collective destruction.
But when France, under Napoleon, took control of Germany along with much of the rest of Europe, he rethought his position and made series of Addresses to the German Nation (1806), in French­occupied Berlin.
