One accusation directed at 18th century aesthetics has been that it realised into "Art" what had previously been a living, rich tissue of meaning: this work shows how Figurative Theo humanism's attention to aesthetic values was never detached from deeper theological and humanistic considerations.

Shows how "The Doctrine of Essence" intersects with perennial philosophical questions including above all, the relationship between freedom and determinism. This study takes an historical approach to build upon Hegel's abstract argument, viewing it as a confrontation with his predecessors, in particular - Fichte and Schelling.
