This lecture course provides a systematic overview of philosophy in the so-called ‘Age of Reason’, the Enlightenment of the 18th century, and the nineteenth century. Typical discussions and problem areas of the philosophy of this period are treated by means of text excerpts. The starting point is the reception and criticism of scholastic Aristotelianism. The core topic of this term is the change of meaning of the concept of substance for modern philosophy. Special attention will be paid to the role of philosophizing women. Nevertheless, we begin and end with male philosophers: René Descartes marks the beginning, and Henri Bergson the end of this course.
