Abstract
Aim. The article examines the philosophical concept of the German thinker of the second half of the 19th century Gustav Teichmüller (1832-1888), professor at the University of Dorpat, in order to study the question of perception and of his ideas receptions within the framework of Russian and German philosophical thought.
Metodology. Teichmüller’s ideas about “soul” and its “immortality” are studied, taking into account the refractions of modern optics. A number of philosophical ideas of Gustav Teichmüller are analyzed on the example of comparing texts similar in topic by Moses Mendelssohn, Ludwig Heinrich von Jakob and Immanuel Kant. At the end of the article an updated bibliography on this period of the history of philosophy is given.
Results. Some of Gustav Teichmüller’s ideas were analyzed; and ideas about similar concepts of Mendelssohn, Jakob, Kant and Teichmüller about the “old” philosophical problem of “immortality of the s1oul” in the interval of about 100 years were obtained.
Research implications. For the first time, a comprehensive study of the concept of “immortality of the soul” is given on the example of Teichmüller’s texts and the issue of reception of his teachings in Russian and German philosophy is considered.
