Product details

Viktor von Weizsäcker delivered a lecture at Heidelberg University during the winter semester of 1919/20, attended by students from all faculties. This lecture not only serves as the philosophical foundation of his medical anthropology but also responds to the intellectual crisis of that time with a new order that is, in fact, very old: the biblical creation narrative.

Guided by the Genesis, it addresses the relationship between humanity, nature, and God – ultimately focusing on the primal phenomenon of opposition as conveyed in the creation account. With questions about heaven and earth, beginning and end, being and nothingness – and finally, truth and falsehood – the central concepts of his later work take shape.

The edition, which is supplemented for the first time from his estate and includes contemporary materials, reveals both the origins of the lecture in dialogue with Franz Rosenzweig and its proximity to East Asian thought. Studies on the history of ideas and the current state of research contribute to a critical assessment of the text.
