From Ionia to Jena

Franz Rosenzweig's relationship with the history of philosophy is marked by profound ambivalence. He frequently announces the end of classical metaphysics—from Parmenides to Hegel—while simultaneously drawing extensively from philosophical history for his own project. Influences such as Kant’s critical philosophy, Schelling’s radical temporality, Hegel’s dialectical method, Schopenhauer’s focus on the individual, Nietzsche’s critique of religion, Kierkegaard’s paradox, and Hermann Cohen’s philosophy of correlation are woven into his system. This raises questions about the common ground that enabled Rosenzweig to unify such diverse insights. Was this unification consistent, or merely an eclectic mix of ideas? Furthermore, did his deep ties to philosophical history hinder him from breaking away from his predecessors, or did he successfully integrate these influences into a groundbreaking framework? The contributions in this volume delve into the dialogue between Rosenzweig and his philosophical references, aiming to identify these influences and explore how he redefined them within his project. They seek to uncover the individual reader who absorbed these various influences and the universal thinker who systematized them anew.
