作品

立场

Mendelssohn defended a rational metaphysics in the tradition of Leibniz and Wolff. His Phaedon renewed Plato’s arguments for the immortality of the soul and made him famous across Europe, and in 1763 he won the Prussian Academy’s prize ahead of Kant. In Jerusalem he argued that the state may regulate actions but never convictions, and that no church may compel belief. Judaism, he held, is not a revealed doctrine but a revealed law; its truths are those of reason, open to everyone. He translated the Torah into German and became a leading figure of Jewish emancipation; his last years were overshadowed by the pantheism controversy with Jacobi.

生平与背景

Moses Mendelssohn was born in 1729 in Dessau, the son of a Torah scribe, and followed his teacher to Berlin at fourteen. Largely self-taught in German, Latin and philosophy, he earned his living as a tutor and then in a silk factory, later as its partner. His friendship with Lessing, who drew on him for Nathan the Wise, opened the Enlightenment to him. He died in Berlin in 1786.
