- Summary:
- In The Abyss Of Freedom, Zizek attempts to advance Schellings' stature even further, with a commentary on the second draft of Shelling's Ages of the World, written in 1813. Zizek argues that the most profound expression of Schelling's thought is found in the series of three consecutive attempts he made to formulate the 'ages of the world/Weltalter'--the stages of the self-development of the Absolute.
