Rainer, Godel and Johannes Schmidt (eds.): Herder Yearbook 16 (2022).
The Herder Yearbook offers—now for the sixteenth time—a selection of current research on Johann Gottfried Herder. This year’s volume collects inquiries into Herder’s reception of Lessing, his sensualism of the 1760s, Herder’s contribution to a theory of climate change, as well as into the reception of Herder in the nineteenth and twentieth century. As in previous years, this volume presents the continuation of the extensive Herder bibliography of primary and secondary literature. Two reviews of current Herder scholarship—one addressing an Italian study of Herder’s philosophy of religion—conclude this volume. The Herder Yearbook is published every other year on behalf of the International Herder Society and presents interdisciplinary scholarship on all aspects of Herder’s works as well as their publication history and reception.
