Summary: | This is an article about the persistence of a certain image of F.W.J. Schelling, an image that came to prominence not for the first time, but in a particularly decisive manner during the 1950s and has lingered on as an ideological template into which a number of contemporary Schelling-interpretations are still fitted. It is an image, I will argue, that crystallised in the Schelling-interpretations offered by three existentialists in the mid-1950s: Karl Jaspers, Gabriel Marcel and Paul Tillich. My aim in this article is, first, to identify and scrutinise their common features - the structural invariants, as it were, shared by Jaspers, Marcel and Tillich's readings; secondly, to investigate how this reading took on its final, influential form in the mid-1950s when all three began to retrospectively consider Schelling's place in the history of existentialist thought. |
