Philosophical Fragments is a volume of translations of short pieces by the German philosopher and poet Karoline von Günderrode (1780-1806), with accompanying introductions. Günderrode was a nuanced thinker with a gift for using literary forms to engage readers with philosophical ideas. Her work provides original responses to the same questions that concerned male philosophers of her time, especially those in the German Idealist and Early German Romantic traditions: What is it to be an individual human being? What is the nature of the universe? Do we have free will, or are our actions determined by operations beyond our control? What can we know about the world, and how? What happens to us after we die? How should we behave while we are alive? What forms of social and political life should we foster?
