New Book - Andrés Quero-Sánchez, Über das Dasein

A new book, Andrés Quero-Sánchez, Über das Dasein: Albertus Magnus und die Metaphysik des Idealismus, Meister-Eckhart-Jahrbuch Beihefte 3 (Stuttgart: Kohlhammer, 2013), has just ben published.  This volume, the author's habilitation, skillfully traces the metaphysics of Idealism through Henry of Ghent, Thomas Aquinas, Dietrich of Freiberg, Meister Eckhart, and later Schelling and Hegel, before making an assessment of the 'realistic metaphysics' of Albert the Great.  This large volume (812 pages) offers an enormous contribution to the field.

More information about the monograph, along with the table of contents, foreword, and a sample from the introduction, can be found on the publisher's website.

PD Dr. Andrés Quero-Sánchez works as part of the research group for "Religiöse Individualisierung in historischer Perspektive" at the Max-Weber-Kolleg of the University of Erfurt.  He also teaches philosophy at the University of Regensburg.
