The first English translation of some of Victor Cousin's most important philosophical writings for over 150 years, accompanied by extensive contextual and analytic resources from a team of internationally recognized Cousin scholars.

Victor Cousin was a towering philosophical figure of the nineteenth century: no French philosopher since has fully escaped his shadow. This edition of Philosophical Fragments brings together a series of Cousin's most accessible and significant texts to introduce English-language readers to his thought, along with commentaries on his relationship to Cartesianism, his role in the invention of the historiography of philosophy, as well as his lasting institutional legacy.

The edition includes many of Cousin's most significant shorter pieces, such as his 1826 Preface to Philosophical Fragments, the 'manifesto' by means of which he relaunched the French spiritualist project and set out his own eclectic project in the history of philosophy; his 1833 Preface to Philosophical Fragments, in which he responds to mounting criticism of his version of spiritualism by setting out definitively his relations to Descartes, eighteenth-century sensualism, German Idealism, and Catholic theology; and a selection of the Fragments themselves, charting the genesis of his philosophy from the 1810s to the 1840s.

Since 2014, Delphine Antoine-Mahut has been Professor of History of Modern Philosophy at ENS de Lyon, having previously held positions as Assistant Professor in History of Modern Philosophy in the same Institution and as an upper-secondary school teacher (agrégée) in the Paris suburbs and French regions. Daniel Whistler is Professor of Philosophy at Royal Holloway, University of London, having previously held positions as Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Liverpool, Humboldt Fellow at the Westfälische-Wilhelms Universität, Münster, and EURIAS Fellow at the École normale supérieure de Lyon.
