"System of Transcendental Idealism" is probably Schelling's most important philosophical work. A central text in the history of German idealism, its original German publication in 1800 came seven years after Fichte's "Wissenschaftslehre" and seven years before Hegel's "Phenomenology of Spirit". Translated into English for the first time in 1978, it is now being offered in paperback. Students of English literature should value this translation, since it was from this work of Schelling's that Coleridge "borrowed" extensively in his "Biographia Literaria". Schelling's philosophy of art, which forms the concluding section of the work, is also of cardinal importance to the intellectual history of the German Romantic movement.
