VAZQUEZ LOBEIRAS, María Jesús. Enlightenment as a Challenge for Our Present: Some Notes on the Enlightenment in Germany. arete [online]. 2023, vol.35, n.1, pp.212-229.  Epub 19-Jul-2023. ISSN 1016-913X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18800/arete.202301.008.

This paper develops a historiographic approach to the development of Enlightenment in Germany, considering its specific traits in comparison to England and France, as well as its different stages. I also present the typology of its main ideas developed by Norbert Hinske, and discuss the possible relevance and significance of these ideas for our current times, specially analysing the idea of a universal human reason and the vocation of human beings.

Palabras clave : German Enlightenment; Aufklärung; universal human reason; vocation of human beings.
