What is From Critical to Speculative Idealism (The Philosophy of Solomon Maimon) about?

This book deals with problems that arme in connection with the origin of critical philosophy as formulated by Kant in his first "Critique". Maimon is both a foliower and a critic of Kant. His criticism of some Kantian doctrines is not that of an antagonist but of a folIower of critical philosophy. Historically Maimon belongs to the period between Kant and the rise of the speculative idealism of Fichte ami the philosophy of deintity (Schelling and HegeI) . The genesis and development of speculative idealism can be better understood as a consequence of the problematic which grew out of an analysis of the "Critique"'· Maimon's idea uf an infinite mi nd is the beginning of the speculative trend of thnught as it evolved in the great metaphysical systems. This is, however, only one side of the sory, for Maimon also anticipated some central doctrines of Neo-Kantianism as it developed in the second half of the nineteenth century. He initiated a line of thought leading to a system of critical philosophy eliminating dogmatic assumptions .
