The figure of Johann Gottfried Herder looms increasingly important not only for his prescient contributions to many fields - biblical criticism, philosophy of language, literary criticism, philosophy of history - but also for his pivotal position between the impulses of the Enlightenment and Romanticism. Many of Herder's questions and concerns are more pressing at the end of the modern era than they were at its inception. Bunge's lucid and engaging translations of signal texts from Herder - most appearing here for the first time in English - are arranged thematically: human nature, language, and history; myth and religion; God and nature; literature and the Bible; and Christianity and theology. Along with her extensive Introduction and Bibliography, they constitute an essential resource for coming to terms with the checkered legacy of the Enlightenment.

His opposition to Kantianism and pure rationalism is a little more of what I was interested in. He had some good things to say in regards to that set of topics, but as I am writing this, nothing springs to mind that was that memorable for me. As it stands, I am glad I read the book (skipping one section that didn't interest me). I was mainly interested in Herder because of his role in the Sturm Und Drang German romantic movement. I think Hamann is probably more noteworthy as the true visionary in regards to German romanticism, but Herder, Jacobi and Lavater, all played a substantial role early on. ( )
