of history. But this strength, of course, invites philosophical criticism, and one wonders whether, by ending on Maine de Biran, Baertschi has chosen the right full stop. Biran does provide the unifying perspective of all the studies, since Baertschi always mentions what criticisms he had formulated against his predecessors; but his own position is not subject to any criticism on Baertschi's part. This would not appear as a problem in a historical study, but, the reader's philosophical interest being aroused throughout the text, one wonders whether we are offered Biran's dualism as a satisfactory position, which it would probably not appear to be to someone familiar with the analytical tradition. This is not so much a defect, however, as a consequence of the stimulating nature of the book. Olivier Tonneau Wadham College, Oxford Schiller und die Geschichte.
