In Romantic Empiricism, Dalia Nassar distinguishes an understudied philosophical tradition that emerged in Germany in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, traces its development, and argues for its continued significance. Nassar shows how four key thinkers, whom she calls the "romantic empiricists," developed a distinctive approach to the study of nature, which culminated in a new, ecological understanding of nature and the human place within it. Nassar contends that the romantic empiricist insights and approaches remain crucial for us today, as we seek to address the environmental crisis.
