Félix Ravaisson: Fragments on Philosophy and Religion comprises translations from Ravaisson’s notes on the history and philosophy of religion, dating from 1850 to 1900. Addressing the history of religions, ancient Greek thought, Christian theology, and the philosophy of revelation, these texts are brought to an English audience for the first time here, as the editors place the fragments in the context of Ravaisson’s philosophy as a whole.These unpublished fragments show Ravaisson’s lifelong grappling with fundamental questions of theology. They demonstrate that the research into mystery religions, mysticism and the Christian liturgy to which he devoted the end of his long career was not a rupture with the philosophy of his early years. In these texts, Ravaisson elaborated his philosophy of revelation, sacrifice and love, and continued the story he had begun with his study of Aristotle.

What is being? What is the meaning of being? For Heidegger in Being and Time, temporality is the primary and way of access to being. For Sartre in Being and Nothingness, being is most closely related to the nothing. Now Being and Movement argues that the meaning of being is the activity of movement and in inhabiting the dynamic unfolding of becoming itself.Through Félix Ravaisson’s idea of being as activity, and a broader synthesis of French Spiritualism, from Maine de Biran to Henri Bergson, this original account reckons with being as fundamentally active, dynamic and ever changing. It draws on Aristotle’s kinesis, Leibniz’s metaphysics of force, and how Ravaisson interpreted Schelling’s positivity of movement, offering a full picture of the reading and translation of movement into modern philosophy. Many of the important traditions of modern philosophy have given a decisive place to ideas of power, energy, activity, and pulsion. But the originality with which French Spiritualism, as a loosely organized tradition of nineteenth and twentieth-century Continental philosophy, proposed an ontological account of being as dynamism has never been explored. This is an indispensable survey not only of Ravaisson’s contribution to the new metaphysics of the late 20th century but also of French Spiritualism more widely. Drawing on the breadth of Ravaisson’s work – including the volumes of his magnum opus, Essay on Aristotle’s Metaphysics, as well as previously unpublished fragments of his 1834 On the Metaphysics of Aristotle – this is a philosophical synthesis of his thought on the metaphysics of movement. It shows, for the first time, how much this 19th century thinker has to contribute to contemporary philosophy.

By revealing the philosophical richness of French spiritualism, this book bridges a gap in the understanding of late modern philosophy and, more specifically, within philosophical history of the Continental tradition The contributors to this volume argue that French spiritualism—within the Continental tradition of philosophy and in tension with some of its most recognized voices—is deeply in favour of metaphysics. Against all abstract metaphysics of the concept, French spiritualism expresses a positive sensibility that insists upon a metaphysical experience of being in the original unity of thought and being. Thus, on the historical front, this book argues for the resourcing of late modern and contemporary philosophy by bringing to visibility a forgotten tradition that opens fresh speculative possibilities of renewal within philosophy. On the speculative front, it demonstrates the specific doctrines and philosophical method of French spiritualism in the renewal of the question of being beyond the alternatives of an ontotheology, abstract idealisms, mere empirical positivism, and a mathematical ontology. In this project of a new quest of being, the very meaning of the task of philosophy is itself transformed.The featured essays discuss defining figures of French spiritualism to highlight the historical importance and philosophical richness of their thought within the continuity of various trajectories within Continental philosophy (Biran, Cousin, Ravaisson, Lachelier, and Bergson). Other essays examine various philosophical themes of French Spiritualism in dialogue with currents within Continental and contemporary philosophy (spiritualism and phenomenology, spiritualism and psychoanalysis, spiritualism and existentialism, spiritualism and mysticism).
