FICHTEANA
An Occasional Newsletter of the North American Fichte Society
Dear friends and colleagues,
The past half year has been an exciting and eventful time from the standpoint of Fichte studies. Some of the more notable events include the fifth biennial meeting of the North American Fichte Society (May 1999) and an international conference in honor of Reinhard Lauth's eightieth birthday (November 1999). Three new conferences on Fichte have also been announced. New publications include a reissue of William Smith's The Popular Works of J. G. Fichte in two volumes, as well as numerous translations of Fichte's writings into French, Italian, Spanish, and Japanese. Essays on Fichte's philosophy, monographs, yearbooks, and special "Fichte issues" of scholarly journals continue to multiply. A revised version of Fichte's Werke on CD-ROM has also appeared, and the website of the North American Fichte Society, under the supervision of Curtis Bowman, has been greatly expanded. Information on all of these publications and events is contained in this issue of Fichteana, which also contains a new section devoted to "Dissertations on Fichte." Please forward any additional information you may have concerning recent dissertations in this area.
As always, information concerning things Fichtean, as well as suggestions, corrections, comments, and criticisms regarding the content and format of this newsletter are welcome. Detailed information concerning recent and forthcoming publications and conferences -- and, if possible, copies of the former -- are particularly solicited. Contributors to this issue of Fichteana include: Karsten Worm, Faustino Fabbianelli, Eckart Förster, Wolfgang Janke, Faustino Oncina Coves, Erich Fuchs, Paul Lennon, Christoph Asmuth, Marco Ivaldo, Jean-Christophe Goddard, Johannes Brachtendorf, Claude Piché, Kevin Zanelotti, and Alois Soller. Janet Roccanova and Kevin Zanelotti assisted with the proof-reading.
Finally, a reminder to every reader of this newsletter who has access to the World Wide Web: Please notify me of this as soon as possible so that I can remove your name from the mailing list and add it to the growing list of those to be immediately notified via e-mail whenever a new issue of "Fichteana" is published -- and simultaneously posted on the NAFS website. Thank you.

Constantly rising costs of producing and mailing Fichteana make it necessary once again to trim the mailing list. If you are currently receiving this newsletter and would like to continue to receive it, please take the time to notify the editor of your continuing interest. Otherwise, it will be assumed that you do not wish to receive future issues of Fichteana. Subscription to Fichteana will continue to be free to anyone who requests it, though non-student subscribers in North America are cordially encouraged to make a small, voluntary financial contribution to help defray the costs of producing and mailing future issues. (Suggested contribution: $15.) Financial contributions are solicited neither from students nor from scholars residing outside of North America. The editor/publisher would like to express his special thanks to everyone who has responded to earlier appeals for contributions. Without your support it would not be possible to continue publishing and distributing this newsletter. (An asterisk after your name on the address label indicates that your contribution has been received and recorded.) Please note: all recipients with access to the World Wide Web are urged to cancel their subscriptions to Fichteana and to access it henceforth through the new NAFS Website (see below). Please notify me if you have web access to this newsletter. |
The North American Fichte Society (NAFS) was founded -- or "posited" -- in 1991 by Daniel Breazeale and Tom Rockmore, who continue to serve as Co-Positors of the same. To date, the activity of the North American Fichte Society has been limited to sponsoring biennial conferences. Our first conference was held in the spring of 1991 on the campus of Duquesne University in Pittsburgh; the second was held in the spring of 1993 on the campus of the University of Denver; the third was held in the spring of 1995 at Shaker Village in Pleasant Hill, Kentucky; the fourth was held in the spring of 1997 on the campus of Marquette University in Milwaukee; and the fifth biennial conference was held in May 1999 in Montréal, Québec (see below).
There are neither dues nor special membership requirements for the North American Fichte Society. Anyone with an interest in any aspect of the philosophy of J. G. Fichte is welcome and encouraged to join. For further information, contact either Daniel Breazeale (at the above address) or Tom Rockmore, Department of Philosophy, Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, PA 15282 <rockmore@duq.edu>.
PUBLICATIONS OF THE NORTH AMERICAN FICHTE SOCIETY
Selected proceedings of the first two meetings of the North American Fichte Society were published by Humanities Press International (recently purchased by Humanity Books). The selected proceedings of the 1991 Duquesne conference, edited by Breazeale and Rockmore under the title Fichte: Historical Contexts/Contemporary Controversies, were published in 1994. The selected proceedings of the 1993 Denver conference, edited by Rockmore and Breazeale, were published in 1996 under the title New Perspectives on Fichte. The unexpected bankruptcy of Humanities Press is responsible for a long and unfortunate delay in the production of the Selected Proceedings of the 1995 Shakertown conference, New Studies in Fichte's Foundation of the Entire Wissenschaftslehre (1794/95), ed. Breazeale and Rockmore, as well as for an equally long delay in editing the selected proceedings of the 1997 Milwaukee conference. Fortunately, both of these projects are once again under way. The Shakertown volume will be published during 2000 by Humanity Books, an imprint of Prometheus Press. The Milwaukee volume is expected to be published by Northwestern University Press.
The Internationale Johann-Gottlieb-Fichte-Gesellschaft (IFG) was founded in December of 1987 in the Federal Republic of Germany "in partnership with the Japanese Fichte Society." The members of the board of directors are Helmut Girndt (President), Helmut Traub (Secretary), Klaus Hammacher (Treasurer), and Ives Radrizzani. The IFG sponsors frequent meetings and conferences in Germany and other European countries (see below) and also publishes the journal Fichte-Studien, plus a series of supplemental monographs (Fichte-Studien, Supplementa). Annual membership dues are 30 DM. For further information contact Prof. Helmut Girndt, Gutenbergstrasse 63, D-40235 Dusseldorf, BRD <Girndt@mail.isis.de>.
Fichte-Studien. Beiträge zur Geschichte und Systematik der Transzendentalphilosophie is an irregularly appearing publication founded in 1990 by the Internationale Fichte-Gesellschaft and is currently edited by Professors Helmut Girndt and Wolfgang H. Schrader. To date, fourteen thick issues of Fichte-Studien have appeared. For information concerning individual and institutional subscriptions, as well as information concerning other Fichte titles by the same publisher, contact Editions Rodopi, 2015 South Place, Atlanta, GA 30339, USA (telephone: 800-225-3998; fax: 770-933-9644).

It is a pleasure to announce the establishment of the first Webpage to be devoted entirely to Fichte.

All readers of Fichteana with web access are urged to notify the editor/publisher of this fact, so that your name can be removed from the mailing list in order to save unnecessary costs of duplication and postage. The web address of the new Fichte Page is: <http://www.phil.upenn.edu/~cubowman/fichte>. |

This one day postgraduate conference will be held at the University of Warwich, May 3, 2000 and will bring together students of both philosophy and German literature whose work deals with the philosophical thought of Fichte, the 'early' Schelling and/or the literary and theoretical writings of the German Romantics who congregated in Jena between 1794 and 1800. Professor Günter Zöller of the University of Munich, author of Fichte's Transcendental Philosophy, and Professor Andrew Bowie, author of Aesthetics and Subjectivity, will be presenting papers at the event. Papers from postgraduates are invited in the following areas:
- The "Fichtean" thought of the "early" (pre-1801) Schelling.
- The influence of Fichte's thinking upon the theoretical or literary work of the German Romantics, such as Holderlin, Novalis and Schlegel.
Papers should be approximately 40-45 minutes in length. After each paper time will be allotted for questions. Prospective participants should send a brief abstract as soon as possible (and no later than the February 25) to: Richard Fincham, Department of Philosophy, University of Warwick, COVENTRY CV4 7AL, ENGLAND. Additional information available at <pypge@csv.warwick.ac.uk>.
The International Fichte Gesellschaft will sponsor an International Fichte Conference in Berlin during the second week of October, 2000. The announced theme of the conference is "Fichte's late philosophy," but it may also include sessions on "philosophy and life" and "Fichte and Maimon." For further information, contact Helmut Girndt, President of the I.F.G. (see above).
The Sixth Biennial Meeting of the North American Fichte Society will be held in the Spring of 2001 in San Diego, California, and Prof. Wayne Martin of the University of California--San Diego will serve as local organizer. In recognition of the (forthcoming) publication of a new English translation of the Grundlage des Naturrechts, the theme of the conference will be "Fichte's Social, Political, and Legal Philosophy." Further details will be forthcoming in the next issue of Fichteana.
