Wilhelm Windelband’s Historical Philosophy

Within the broader reevaluation of the Neo-Kantian movement, this book undertakes the task of reconstructing Wilhelm Windelband's philosophical endeavor. Windelband's philosophical program was centered on the synthesis of two seemingly antithetical forces: transcendental philosophy and historical consciousness. He possessed a keen awareness of the intricacies inherent to historical thought and the compelling necessity to reformulate transcendental philosophy in terms of a true historical philosophy. This conceptual evolution ultimately steers his philosophical program away from its initial Neo-Kantian roots, giving rise to a novel strain of Neo-Hegelianism.
