Der Begriff des Ursprungs hat eine zentrale Bedeutung für das Denken Johann Gottfried Herders. Ohne seine Überlegungen zu diesem Themenbereich sind weder seine Entwürfe zur Volkspoesie noch die philosophischen Betrachtungen zu Sprache und Geschichte denkbar. Die Arbeit versucht die Entwicklung des Herderschen Ursprungsbegriffes zu zeigen. Sie geht aus von einer monographischen Darstellung des «Ursprungs» in der bis heute weitgehend verkannten Schrift «Älteste Urkunde des Menschengeschlechts». Die weiteren Teile der Arbeit untersuchen die Veränderung und Kontinuität des Ursprungsbegriffes im Herderschen Gesamtwerk und dessen Bedeutung für die Rezeptionsgeschichte.
New, specially commissioned essays providing an in-depth scholarly introduction to the great thinker of the European Enlightenment. Johann Gottfried Herder (1744-1803) is one of the great names of the classical age of German literature. One of the last universalists, he wrote on aesthetics, literary history and theory, historiography, anthropology, psychology, education, and theology; translated and adapted poetry from ancient Greek, English, Italian, even from Persian and Arabic; collected folk songs from around the world; and pioneered a better understanding of non-European cultures.A student of Kant's, he became Goethe's mentor in Strasbourg, and was a mastermind of the Sturm und Drang and a luminary of classical Weimar. But the wide range of Herder's interests and writings, along with his unorthodox ways of seeing things, seems to have prevented him being fully appreciated for any of them. His image has also been clouded by association with political ideologies, the proponents of which ignored the message of Humanität in histexts. So although Herder is acknowledged by scholars to be one of the great thinkers of European Enlightenment, there is no up-to-date, comprehensive introduction to his works in English, a lacuna this book fills with seventeennew, specially commissioned essays.
