Sažetak
The paper reintroduces and reinforces Fuhrmans’ thesis that Schelling’s Freedom Essay was mostly occasioned by critical remarks of Friedrich Schlegel and ‘Schlegel’s party’, not by those of Hegel or Jacobi. It aims to demonstrate this both from Schelling’s correspondence and from many passages of the Freedom Essay itself, and to contribute to a better contextual reading of the Freedom Essay through an exploration of its intertextual relations, whether they are already known or as yet unidentified. It advocates the reading of the Freedom Essay as a polemical work and apologia of Schelling’s system as well as his personal integrity, which could explain concealed motives behind its systematic novelties. The paper expounds four lines of apologetic argumentation in the Freedom Essay which reveal why and how Schelling moved towards the topics and positions of his late philosophy.
