Description
Beyond Presence: The Late F.W.J. Schelling’s Criticism of Metaphysics by Tyler Tritten is an in-depth examination of Schelling’s later philosophy, focusing on his radical critique of traditional metaphysics. Tritten explores how Schelling moves beyond the metaphysical emphasis on presence, being, and identity, instead embracing a philosophy that highlights absence, freedom, and the unpredictable nature of existence. The book reveals how Schelling’s late thought breaks with the systematic philosophies of his contemporaries, including Hegel, offering a unique perspective that anticipates many concerns of contemporary philosophy, such as existentialism, post-structuralism, and speculative realism. Tritten’s study positions Schelling as a thinker deeply relevant to today’s philosophical debates, particularly around the limits of knowledge, the nature of freedom, and the critique of metaphysical certainty.
