"Principle of my philosophical outlook." Romantic Naturphilosophie of Georg Franz Buquoy
MORAWETZ, Michal
The bachelor thesis is focused on a reconstruction of fundamental ideas in the philosophy of Georg Franz Buquoy. It is based on the analysis of his tract Kern meiner philosophischen Grundansicht (around 1825), which only exists as a manuscript, and is deposited in Buquoy's Family Archives in the State Regional Archives in Třeboň. The discussion of this subject is based on methods of intellectual history. I proceed from the current debate on the relationship between natural science and humanities at the time of late enlightenment and romanticism. I endeavour to reintegrate Buquoy's oeuvre into the historical scientific and social context, and interpret his ideas about the world order and about the role of nature, man, and God in this world. The introductory chapter surveys the development of the historical research and analyzes the historical works I have used. Apart from that, I reconstruct Buquoy´s image in the historiography and explain which archival sources I have used. The 2nd chapter introduces the philosophical way of thinking in the Austrian Vormärz and explains the main ideas of German and Austrian Naturphilosophie. The following chapter focuses on education, learning and the interests of Georg Franz Buquoy. The fourth chapter analyses the philosophical tract under discussion.
