Romanticism, revolution, Schelling – polish speculative philosophy on the threshold of Revolutions of 1848 3800-RRS22-S
The decade preceding the Revolutions of 1848 was a period of exceptional, particularly intensive growth in the history of Polish philosophical thought. This decade is not only an important historical event, but it is also a permanent source of inspiration for following generations of Polish philosophers. The ideas which were formulated in that time by Trentowski, Libelt and Cieszkowski should be considered in two main contexts. The first one is the context of German idealism and the standpoints of Left Hegelians. Strictly connected to this philosophical context is the historical and political context of the epoch that lasted from the July Revolution and November Uprising to the Revolutions od 1848, in which the philosophical projects of Trentowski, Libelt and Cieszkowski were formulated. In the first part of the classes we will analyse the philosophical systems and ideas that were formulated in the German thought and gave an important point of reference for aforementioned Polish philosophers. During the second part we will focus on the ideas presented in the most important philosophical works written by Trentowski, Libelt and Cieszkowski.
