This is not just because of its reception history - its influence on later German thinkers, such as Goethe, Hamann, Hegel, Herder, Hölderlin, Jean Paul, Kant, Jacobi, Novalis, Schelling, the Schlegels, Schleiermacher, Wieland - but is primarily because Hemsterhuis' philosophy contains a rich assemblage of ideas and philosophical practices. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhistler looks specifically at Hemsterhuis' reflections on philosophical style and the strategies he employs to communicate ideas in his late dialogues.
