Die Abendstunde eines Einsiedlersについての哲学的考究

"Karl von Raumer pointed out in his book, Die Geschite der Padagogik vom Wiederaufbluhen Klassischer Studien bis auf unsere Zeit, Zweiter Theil (1947), that Pestalozzi\u27s work, Die Abendstunde eines Einsiedlers, is not only the result of his past life he has spent, but also the seed of his future life ; in other words, it is both the long-term program of his educational achievments and the key to them. Moreover, Karl Schmidt (1891-1956) admired Pestalozzi for his idea and literary style in his book referring to it as ""Goldkorner in silbernen Schalen."" Because of his excellent educational practice and his voluminous works, we have had quite a large number of studies and researches on his achievement in education. But I believe we have ever had very few studies on his philosophic inquiry. For this reason, I deal with Die Abendstunde eines Einsiedlers in this article, attempting to study in detail his speculative, empirical and practical idea. I intend to develop my theory about his idea in the following manner. 1. The real picture of Europe, including Zurich, in the days when the book was published 2. The way he studies about what a man is 3. A comparative study with Immanuel Kant 4. The difference between the philosophy of Pestalozzi and that of John Dewey 5. A comparison between the philosophy of Pestalozzi and that of George Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel 6. His view of Nature 7. The Immanent principle and the transcendent principle 8. What he thinks is true
