In the history of thought, Friedrich Harms is one of the names that keeps being returned to.
The record lists Friedrich Harms as German philosopher (1819–1880).
Friedrich Harms was born at Kiel in 1819. His recorded nationality is Germany. He studied at Kiel University.
The nineteenth century produced systems on a grand scale, and then the reaction against them.
His academic posts were held at Kiel University and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
The discipline keeps its dead in print, because the arguments are still open.
That the work was done from Germany matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Friedrich Harms died in 1880, aged 61. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
