History, Philosophy and Theory of the Life Sciences Andrea Gambarotto Vital Forces, Teleology and Organization Philosophy of Nature and the Rise of Biology in Germany this book oliers a comprehensive account ol vitalism and the Romantic philosophy ot nature, the author explores the rise of biologę՛ as a unified science in Germany by reconstructing the history ol the notion of “vital force,” starting from the mid eighteenth through the earl}՛ nineteenth century. Further, he argues that Romantic Naturphilosophie played a crucial role in the rise oi biology in Germany, especially thanks to its treatment of teleology. In fact, both post-Kantian philosophers and naturalists were guided by teleological principles in defining the object of biological research. Tire book begins by considering the problem ot generation, focusing on the debate over the notion ol “formative force.” Readers are invited to eirgage with the epistemological status of this formative torce, i.e. the question of the principle behind organization. The second chapter protides a reconstruction of the physiology of vital forces as it was elaborated in the mid- to late-eighteenth century by the group of physicians and naturalists known as the “Göttingen School.” Readers are shown how these authors developed an understanding of the animal kingdom as a graded series of organisms with increasing functional complexity. Chapter three tracks the development of such framework in Romantic Naturphilosophie. The author introduces the reader to the problem of classification, showing how Romantic philosophers of nature
regarded classification as articulated by a unified plan that connects all living forms with one another, relying on the idea of living nature as a universal organism. In the closing chapter, this analysis shows how the three instances of pre-biological discourse on lir ing beings ֊ theory of generation, physiology and natural history ֊ converged to form the consolidated disciplinary matrix ot a general biology. T he book offers an insightful read for all scholars interested in classical German philosophy, especially those researching the philosophy of nature, as well as the history and philosophy of biologę՛.
