individually acquiring the competence to judge the legitimacy of encountered propositional claims. Finally, Fichte confronts us with the idea of the identity of self-consciousness and objectivity. (1) Transcending ordinary life and experience to a somewhat higher being is surely not the scope of transcendental philosophy. What the revolutionary achievements of Descartes, Kant, and Fichte have generically in common is to account for the legitimacy of our knowledge claims or, in other words, for
Johann Gottlieb Fichte was a major contributor to German idealism philosophy. He is known to be one of the most insightful philosophers during the period between Kant and Hegel, developing his own method of transcendental philosophy, the “Wissenschaftslehre”. Fichte entered the world of German philosophy on the tail of Immanuel Kant and just before Hegel. Fichte was extremely influential to contemporaries that followed him and was commended for his unique thoughts in German Idealism, particularly
After the end of French Revolution, as the empires slowly diminished, countries wished to become independent and develop nation-states. Possibly one of the first nationalists was Johann Gottlieb Fichte, who attempted to urge Germans to be individual from people of other nation-states. Many years later, more people became interested in nationalism, some in more positive ways than others. Ernest Renan questioned the definition of an actual nation, and what constituted a nation. However, not everyone

never-ending attack on Hegel, the Marxian conception of history is Hegelian through and through.”1 Hegel’s philosophy is focused on the criticism of Kant and Fichte, two other German philosophers. Engels once wrote “We German socialists are proud that we trace our descent not only from Saint Simon, Fourier, and Owen, but also from Kant, Fichte, and Hegel.”2 To this list one must also add Ludwig Feuerbach who Engels wrote about later in life. These philosophers had the most influence on Marx and
a philosophical orientation very different from the latter’s. In the history of psychology this aspect of Leibniz’s thought is well known in the structure of his theory of “obscure perceptions” which had a major hallmark in the revivals depicting Johann Friedrich Herbart and which had some other levels of alternations which would hence be transformed within a major concept important to a critical factor of clientele management and in the development of the concept of the threshold of consciousness

Folk music had always been in place and linked directly with particular regions. On a larger scale though, European music was a device for expression through the application of Italian techniques and styles. In other words, its technical vocabulary was Italian, and from the time of the early baroque, European music, in general, had evolved

Nationalism Final Question One Many different theoretical approaches exist to study the rise of nationalism throughout history. One approach is primordialism. Primordialism states that nationalism is a natural part of human beings. This field contends that distinct nations have existed since the dawn of time. Primordialism is also described as nationalism is created by people being surrounded by distinct cultural features like religion, custom, and language. This view believes that nations are unchanging
