Dear friends and colleagues,
Due to various and mysterious machinations of the Not-I, it has now been nearly 2 years since the appearance of Fichteana no. 13. As a result, no. 14 is the largest issue ever.
The past two years have seen the publication of many new and important editions and translations of Fichte's writings as well as the appearance of many new books and articles devoted to his philosophy. Among the more notable new publications are volume IV/3 of the Fichte Gesamtausgabe, several thick issues of Fichte-Studien, and many special journal issues and edited volumes of papers devoted to Fichte. It is a special pleasure to be able to announce that the selected proceedings of the San Diego/Del Mar meeting of NAFS have now been edited (by Rockmore and Breazeale) and will be published this year by Ashgate Publishing Co. under the title Rights, Bodies, and Recognition: New Essays on Fichte's Foundations of Natural Right.
Worldwide over the past two years there have been many international, national, and regional conferences, both large and small, devoted to various aspects of Fichte's thought as well as special "Fichte sessions" at less specialized meetings. Particularly noteworthy was the very large and exceedingly well organized International Fichte Congress that was held in Munich in October 2003, under the auspices of the International Fichte Society and devoted to Fichte's Later Philosophy. The seventh meeting of the North American Fichte Society, which was held in Philadelphia in the spring of 2004 on the topic "Fichte and German Idealism," is also worthy of special mention. Further information on these and other recent conferences and events, as well as more information on new publications, may be found in the sections of this newsletter devoted to the same.
This issue also contains a call for papers for the next meeting of the North American Fichte Society, this one on the topic "Fichte and Phenomenology," to be held in March 2006 in Vienna, Austria. Please note that proposals for papers to be presented at this event are due by June of 2005.
As always, information concerning things Fichtean, as well as suggestions, corrections, comments, and criticisms regarding the content and format of this newsletter are very welcome. Detailed information concerning recent and forthcoming publications and conferences -- and, if possible, copies of the former -- are cordially solicited, as is information regarding recent dissertations on Fichte.
The editor would like to express his special thanks to Marco Ivaldo, Dorothea Wildenburg, Hitoshi Minobe, Ch. Kumamoto, Ernst-Otto Onnash, Wolfang Janke, Jean-Christophe Goddard, Günter Zöller, and Erich Fuchs for their contributions to this issue of Fichteana.

Constantly rising costs of producing and mailing Fichteana make it necessary to trim the surface mailing list from time to time. Indeed, by now the great majority of subscribers will be receiving this newsletter in electronic form, as an email attachment. If you do NOT wish to receive such attachments, please notify me and I will remove your name from the list. If you are currently receiving this newsletter in hard copy form and would like to continue to receive it in this form, 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 in the mail. 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. Please note: all recipients with access to the World Wide Web or the ability to receive e-mail attachments are urged to cancel their subscriptions to the hard copy version of Fichteana and to access it henceforth through the NAFS Website (see below). |
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; the fifth was held in May 1999 in Montréal, Québec, and the sixth was held in March of 2001 in Del Mar/La Jolla, California. The seventh conference was held in the spring of 2004 on the campus of St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia.
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.

Eighth Biennial Meeting of the North American Fichte Society March 15-18, 2006 Vienna, Austria The Eighth Biennial Meeting of the North American Fichte Society will be held in Vienna, Austria, with the cooperation of the Institut für Philosophie of the Universität Wien. Local arrangements will be coordinated by Dr. Violetta Waibel. The conference theme will be Fichte's relationship to the phenomenological tradition in modern philosophy, with the latter broadly construed to include such figures as Freud and James as well as the usual twentieth century "phenomenologists" such as Husserl, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, et al. As is the practice of the North American Fichte Society, this conference is open to all interested Fichte scholars, both in North America and elsewhere, though contributions from scholars who have participated in earlier meetings of the North American Fichte Society are especially encouraged and will be particularly welcome. Even though this event will be held in Austria, the language of the conference and of the presentations will be English. We anticipate a very full program for this event and will do all we can to accommodate as many presentations as possible without having to resort to parallel sessions. In order to accomplish the latter aim it may, for the first time, be necessary to limit the number of papers we can accept for presentation at this conference. In order to facilitate this process of selection it is vital to receive responses to this call for papers as early as possible. Accordingly, please send your proposal -- including the title of your paper and a brief description of its contents -- to the following address no later than June 1, 2005: Prof. Daniel Breazeale, Department of Philosophy, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40508 USA, email: <breazeal@uky.edu>. Conference papers should have a maximum reading time of 30 minutes. As in the past, we hope to publish a volume of selected papers from this conference. Though not all of the papers can be published, we nevertheless request that anyone presenting a paper at this conference formally grant the North American Fichte Society the "right of first refusal" for the publication of the same. Please note that no funds will be generally available from the conference sponsors to support either travel costs or living expenses of the conference participants. However, if you require a "letter of invitation" for the purposes of obtaining travel support from your local institution, that can easily be arranged. Further details concerning lodging, program, etc. will be announced at a later date. |
This question may be addressed historically, systematically, or through any combination of these two approaches. The winning essay will receive a prize of $1000 and, upon recommendation of the selection committee, be published in Inquiry. The author of the winning essay will also be brought to the University of Kentucky in the fall of 2005 to present it.
The winner of the First Annual Prize Essay Competition was Dr. Sami Pihlström of the University of Helsinki for his essay "Recent Reinterpretations of ‘The Transcendental’ Revisited." The essay will be published in an upcoming issue of Inquiry.
Essays will be judged by a process of blind review. Submissions should be appropriately formatted for such a process, with the author's name and other identifying information appearing only on a separate cover sheet. Essays should be double spaced, in English, and no more than 7000 words in length. Past and present faculty and students at the University of Kentucky are ineligible to compete. Submissions should not have been previously published or submitted for publication.
The deadline for submissions is March 1, 2005. Essays should be submitted in triplicate in typed (hard copy) form to Ms. Katie Barrett, Department of Philosophy, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506-0027 USA. No electronic submissions please.

The Internationale Johann-Gottlieb-Fichte-Gesellschaft, in co-operation with the Istituto Italiano per gli Studi filosofici, Neapel and the Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften, München, recently sponsored a large, international Kongress under the overall title, "J. G. Fichte: The Late Work (1810-14) and the Work of a Lifetime." The focus of the congress, which was held in the main building of the Ludwigs-Maximilians-Universtät in Munich, was upon Fichte's wide-ranging final works, arising from his lectures at the newly founded University of Berlin. These writings include a number of late versions of the Wissenschaftslehre, as well as works on legal philosophy, ethics and philosophy of politics and history. Other papers dealt with Fichte's overall work, primarily from the perspective of his late writings. More than 150 scholars participated in the event, including 9 from North America. The Congress lasted from October 14 through October 18, with papers presesented from 8:30 in the morning until 6:30 in the afternoon, in four concurrent sessions. Invited lectures were also presented in evening plenary sessions, which usually included festive evening receptions and meals as well. Though the great majority of the papers were delivered in German,10 were in French and 7 in English. The conference program and a full list of participants is available on the IFG website, at <http://www.lrz-muenchen.de/~Fichte-Gesellschaft/>. The Procceedings will appear in future numbers of Fichte-Studien.
For the most up-to-date information (in German and English) concerning the ongoing Critical Edition of Fichte's writings, see the website of the Fichte Commission of the Bavarian Academy of the Sciences, <www.fichte.badw.de>.
According to a recent announcement, the "Fichte-Forum" maintained jointly by the Fichte-Commission of the Bavarian Academy of the Sciences and the University of Munich is also intended to serve as bibliographical "databank" for new publications of interest to Fichte scholars. Such information can be sent directly, via e-mail, to <Fichte.Forum@lrz.uni-muenchen.de>, or, via ordinary mail, to Dr. H. G. von Manz, Fichte-Kommission, Marstallplatz 8, D-80539 München, Germany.
