[The rich panorama of German historiography of philosophy in the first half of the nineteenth century was replete with various differing tendencies and works of a fundamental nature, but the “general” history of philosophy was a more limited and less significant presence than it had been in the previous period. The earlier period had seen great German historians like Brucker and Tennemann, who created an authentic European model of historiography of a “general” nature, as Cousin recognised (cf. Cours, I, pp. 339–341). Now we see the prevalence of monographic works on more circumscribed sectors of the history of thought: the Greek and Roman period, Oriental thought, Patristic and Scholastic philosophy, and above all the history of modern or even contemporary thought (from Kant onwards). It was to make up for the lack of a general history that Wendt brought out a new edition of Tennemann’s Geschichte der Philosophie, only the first volume of which actually came out however, in 1829 (see Models, III, p. 863). The same year saw the first volume of August Heinrich Ritter’s Geschichte der Philosophie (1829–1854, 12 vols), which, in its size and methodological and interpretative originality, was an ideal continuation of Tennemann’s work.]
