Morning Hours

Exploring profound epistemological and metaphysical themes, this work presents Moses Mendelssohn's arguments for the existence of God while engaging in the intellectual conflict known as the Pantheismusstreit with F. H. Jacobi. It serves not only as a theoretical treatise but also as Mendelssohn's defense of his friend Lessing against accusations related to pantheism. He argues that there is no significant practical difference between theism and a "purified pantheism," making this work a significant contribution to philosophical discourse of its time.
