 Although it is tempting to regard the Post-Enlightenment period as a confused interregnum, serving only as a prelude to the revolutionary breakthroughs of philosophical modernism – that is, those movements that organized and flourished after the Great War – the fact is that Lotze (and in particular the Logik) was still a relevant and wholly viable topic for philosophical seminars well into the 1920s. As a result, there is a related trend that augurs for treating Lotze as if he were a contemporary and thus subjecting him to our own expectations and standards. On those terms, however, Lotze presents mostly an unappealing and enigmatic tangle.
