This book argues that the rediscovery of mystical theology in nineteenth-century Germany
not only helped inspire idealism and romanticism, but also planted the seeds of their
overcoming by way of critical materialism. Thanks in part to the Neoplatonic turn
in the works of J. G. Fichte, as well as the enthusiasm of mining engineer Franz X.
von Baader, mystical themes gained a critical currency, and mystical texts returned
to circulation. This reawakening of the mystical tradition influenced romantic and
idealist thinkers such as Novalis and Hegel, and also shaped later critical interventions
by Marx, Benjamin, and Bataille. Rather than rehearsing well-known connections to
Swedenborg or Böhme, this study goes back further to the works of Meister Eckhart,
Nicholas of Cusa, Catherine of Siena, and Angela of Foligno. The book offers a new
perspective on the reception of mystical self-interrogation in nineteenth-century
German thought and will appeal to scholars of philosophy, history, theology, and religious
studies
