Abstract
To what extent is philosophy also literature, and to what extent is literature also philosophy? How do these two basic forms of human understanding systematically relate to each other and how have they historically developed against, alongside and with each other? What does it mean to read philosophical texts with literary and literary eyes and what does it mean inversely to view and interpret literary texts philosophically? The aim of this anthology of philosophy and literature is to examine and illuminate these multifaceted and diverse relationships between philosophy and literature. Here, the volume addresses both fundamental systematic questions relating to the relationship between philosophy and literature, as well as exemplary readings of philosophical texts from literary-literary and literary texts from a philosophical perspective, with the selected pieces of reading philosophical and literary writing from various historical epochs, genres and cultural Represent contexts.
