Philosophy Friends and Fellow Colleagues: It is my great honor to share with you all another exciting episode of The Young Idealist Series On Classical German Philosophy and Post-Kantian Thought.
This is a very special episode featuring Dr. Dalia Nassar who navigates the viewers through her exciting philosophical work and discussing important issues such as Knowledge, Aesthetics, Ethics, Nature and Ecology.
The Following video is a continuation of my series on Classical German Philosophy and Post-Kantian Thought. The title of today's episode is On The Intersection of Nature; Aesthetic Experience, & Ethics with Dr. Dalia Nassar (USYD).
In this episode of: The Young Idealist Series, I invited Dr. Dalia Nassar who is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Sydney. Her work sits at the intersection of the history of German philosophy, environmental philosophy and ethics.
As an admirer of Dr. Nassar's academic and scholarly work, I knew she would be a perfect guest to participate in this series. Dr. Nassar is the author of The Romantic Absolute: Being and Knowing in Early German Romantic Philosophy, 1795-1804, from Chicago University Press, published in 2013. Her most recent monograph, Romantic Empiricism: Nature, Art, and Ecology from Herder to Humboldt (Oxford University Press, 2022) investigates the understudied tradition of romantic empiricism, highlights its significance for the development of ecology, and argues for its contemporary relevance in addressing environmental questions and concerns. By showing how the romantic empiricists deepened their understanding of nature through artistic skills and tools, Dr. Nassar also demonstrates the significance of art for knowledge, and highlights the ways in which epistemology, aesthetics, and ethics are fundamentally interdependent.
Dr. Nassar has a strong interest in the contributions of women philosophers, and in the ways in which philosophical canon formation has sidelined them. She has co-edited, with Kristin Gjesdal, two volumes on women philosophers, including an anthology of primary works titled Women Philosophers in the Nineteenth Century: The German Tradition, and The Oxford Handbook of Nineteenth-Century Women Philosophers in the German Tradition which is also co-edited with Kristin Gjesdal and was published in 2024. Dr. Nassar is a co-investigator on the SSHRC (Canada) grant, Extending New Narratives in the History of Philosophy. And more recently, a Future Fellowship (from the Australian Research Council) to work on under-studied / neglected women philosophers of the late Enlightenment and early Romanticism.
The following episode explores many important areas of study in Dr. Nassar's rich research; such as the Relationship between art and knowledge, aesthetics, naturphilosophie, beauty, environmental ethics, ecology and the philosophy of science.
Dr. Dalia Nassar does a brilliant job of navigating the viewer through these complex philosophical issues giving the viewer deep insight into several key philosophical issues and speaking on a wide variety of diverse thinkers like, Goethe, Schiller, Herder, Kant, Schelling, Novalis, Humboldt, Staël, Günderrode and Gerda Walther.

Émilie du Châtelet (1706-1749).

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832).
Johann Gottfried Herder (1744-1803).
