Tommaso Mauri – författare

Tommaso Mauri offers a new reconstruction of F.W.J. Schelling’s late philosophy as a philosophy of religion shaped by the irreducible tension between metaphysical reason and historical eventfulness. Rather than dissolving this tension into a final synthesis, Schelling develops a polar framework in which concept and event, ideality and factuality, remain in an unresolved yet generative relation.Mauri clarifies the architecture of Schelling’s final system by tracing the development of positive philosophy and its interplay with negative philosophy. He then examines the genesis of religious consciousness, showing how Schelling’s interpretations of mythology, Christianity and secularisation articulate a rigorously non-reductive account of religion. Finally, he offers a focus on the concept of philosophical religion, conceived as a third historical form that emerges after both mythology and revealed religion.By following the internal development of Schelling’s thought, Mauri argues that his late philosophy provides a powerful framework for rethinking religion not only within modernity but also in our present.
