Karl Fortlage
Karl Fortlage (born June 12, 1806 in Osnabrück , † November 8, 1881 in Jena ) was a German philosopher .
Karl Fortlage was appointed private lecturer in Heidelberg in 1829, in Berlin in 1845 and in Jena as professor of philosophy in 1846.
Originally a Hegelian, as his youthful publication Die Lücken des Hegelschen Systems (Heidelb. 1832) proves, he went on, prompted by the study of Kant and especially Fichte and Beneke , to merge the theory of science with empirical psychology and to adopt a standpoint that he himself called transcendental pantheism.
His two main philosophical works are: Genetic history of philosophy since Kant (Leipzig 1852) u. System of Psychology (Leipzig 1855, 2 vol.).
