Andreas Dorschel (born 1962) is a German philosopher. Since 2002, he has been professor of aesthetics and head of the Institute for Music Aesthetics at the University of the Arts Graz (Austria).

Background

Andreas Dorschel was born in 1962 in Wiesbaden, West Germany. He is a cousin of the modernist visual artist Gesine Probst-Bösch (Weimar 1944–1994 Munich).[1] From 1983 on, Dorschel studied philosophy, musicology and linguistics at the universities of Frankfurt am Main (Germany) and Vienna (Austria) (MA 1987, PhD 1991). In 2002, the University of Bern (Switzerland) awarded him the Habilitation degree (post-doctoral lecturing qualification). Dorschel has taught at universities in Switzerland, Austria, Germany and the UK.[2] At University of East Anglia Norwich (UK), he was a colleague of writer W.G. Sebald.[3] Dorschel was visiting professor at Emory University (1995) and at Stanford University (2006).[4] On Dorschel's initiative, the Graz Institute for Music Aesthetics received its name in 2007.[5] Between 2008 and 2017, Dorschel was a member of the Board of Trustees of the Austrian Science Fund (FWF);[6] from 2012 to 2017 he joined the Review Panel of the HERA (Humanities in the European Research Area) Joint Research Programme of the European Science Foundation (ESF) (Strasbourg / Brussels).[7] From 2010 on, he has been on the advisory board of the Royal Musical Association (RMA) Music and Philosophy Study Group.[8] In his philosophical explorations of music, he closely exchanged ideas with British aesthetician Roger Scruton (1944–2020).[9] In 2019, Andreas Dorschel was elected member of the Academia Europaea.[10] During the academic year 2020/21, he was a Fellow of the Berlin Institute for Advanced Study.[11]

Work

In his philosophical studies, Dorschel explores, both in a systematic and historical vein, the interconnectedness of thought and action. His work has been influenced by philosophers Denis Diderot, Arthur Schopenhauer and R. G. Collingwood.[13]

Will

In Die idealistische Kritik des Willens [German Idealism's Critique of the Will] (1992) Dorschel defends an understanding of freedom as choice against Kant's and Hegel's ethical animadversions. Following a method of "critical analysis",[14] Dorschel objects both to Kant's claim that "a free will and a will under moral laws are one and the same thing" ("ein freier Wille und ein Wille unter sittlichen Gesetzen einerlei")[15] and to Hegel's doctrine that "freedom of the will is rendered real as law" ("die Freiheit des Willens als Gesetz verwirklicht").[16] What renders freedom of the will real, Dorschel argues, is rather to exercise choice sensibly.[17] Unlike other critics of idealism, Dorschel does not endorse determinism. Determinism, if we are to make sense of the idea, would have to be correlated with the notion of prediction. Predictions, Dorschel argues, need a basis that is not affected by their being made. But just as I cannot overtake my own shadow, I cannot predict my own future behaviour from my present state. For I would alter my state by making the prediction.[18] This line of reasoning can do without Kant's opposition of determinism about appearances and freedom of the thing-in-itself.[19]

Prejudice

Rethinking Prejudice (2000)

Rethinking Prejudice (2000, reissued 2019) examines the Enlightenment's struggle against prejudices[20] and the Counter-Enlightenment's partisanship in favour of them. "Dorschel wants to subvert that controversy by way of refuting an assumption shared by both parties" ("Dorschel will diesen Streit unterlaufen, indem er eine von beiden geteilte Annahme widerlegt"),[21] to wit, that prejudices are bad or good, false or true because they are prejudices.[22] As Richard Raatzsch puts it, Dorschel "seeks out the common source of both parties' errors through rendering each position as strong as possible" ("den gemeinsamen Quellen der Irrtümer beider Seiten nachgeht, indem er sie so plausibel wie möglich zu machen sucht").[23] Prejudices, Dorschel concludes, can be true or false, intelligent or stupid, wise or foolish, positive or negative, good or bad, racist or humanist – and they possess none of these features simply qua prejudices.[24] The conclusion's significance derives from the fact that it is part and parcel of "an account which preserves something of the common-sense notion of prejudice, rather than an abstract list of necessary and sufficient conditions that risks neglecting what people have historically meant and continue to mean by the term."[25]

Design

In Gestaltung – Zur Ästhetik des Brauchbaren [Design – The Aesthetics of Useful Things] (2002), Dorschel probes different ways of assessing artefacts.[26] He "observed that 'the concepts of the useful and [of] purpose have been replaced in the philosophy of design by that of function'", Ute Poerschke states in a dense summary of the monograph.[27] 'Function' seemed to maintain the older meaning, but covered a bias towards technology. "The question of 'how' (how does this machine function?) replaced the question of 'what' (for what purpose?). Purpose embodies the question of 'what'; technology the question of 'how'. Dorschel criticized that function has a diffuse meaning, under which one could understand both purpose and technology and concluded that because of this diffuse meaning it is advisable to consider 'not function, as modern functionalism did, but rather purpose and technology as the basic concepts of a theory of design'."[28] Gestaltung – Zur Ästhetik des Brauchbaren, according to Christian Demand, features "a systematic philosophy of design that does not settle for mere propaedeutics".[29] Ludwig Hasler characterizes Dorschel's book as a “cure via argumentative precision” (“argumentative Präzisionskur”), setting up “a controversy [...] both with modern functionalism, the movement that revolutionized design for a century, and with postmodernism, that sportive celebration of whimsy in matters of form” (“eine Streitschrift […] gegen den Funktionalismus der Moderne, der ein Jahrhundert lang die Gestaltung der Gebrauchsdinge revolutionierte, wie gegen die Postmoderne, die sich auf den Spass an der Beliebigkeit der Formen kaprizierte”).[30]

Metamorphosis

Verwandlung (2009)

Dorschel's Verwandlung. Mythologische Ansichten, technologische Absichten [Mutation. Mythological Views, Technological Purposes] (2009) represents a philosophical history of the idea of metamorphosis – “shaded in many nuances”.[31] Metamorphosis, Dorschel points out, defies analysis in terms of change.[32] Change is supposed to be a rational pattern: A thing remains what it is while its features alter. But where does a thing cease to be that thing, where do its features commence? Whatever were that thing devoid of its features? Hence, historically, the concept of change was shadowed by the idea of metamorphosis or mutation. Dorschel highlights this idea, setting forth – in four case studies – the character of metamorphosis in Graeco-Roman mythology, in the New Testament,[33] in modern alchemy, and, finally, in current genetic engineering and synthetic biology.

Ideas

In his 2010 volume Ideengeschichte [History of Ideas], Dorschel explains key issues of method in his research fields.[34] Subject matter of this branch of historiography, he argues, are “not ideas per se, but situated ideas”;[35] hence what has got to be explored are not just texts and similar primary sources, but also the historical conditions under which ideas emerged as well as the ways they were received and circulated. Dorschel distrusts any isolating take on ‘an idea’ as a singular entity; hence he endorses Gilbert Ryle’s image of “teams of ideas”[36] which can only succeed if and when they play together. New ideas are invented in response to difficulties, obstacles or perplexities; from the latter, Dorschel suggests, historians can make sense of the former.[37] The extent to which emerging ideas undermine previously dominant ideas is a measure of their novelty. Dorschel considers the subversive potential of ideas not to be peripheral; rather, he grants it centre stage in his account.[38] Novelty often requires an unused image, a fresh metaphor that may only much later dry out into an accustomed concept.[39] It has been considered “one of the strengths of Dorschel’s monograph”[40] to overcome Quentin Skinner's constricting doctrine that ideas are “essentially linguistic”.[41] Dorschel asserts: “Words are just one medium of ideas among others; musicians conceive their products in tones, architects in spaces, painters in form and colour, mathematicians in numbers or, on a more abstract level, in functions” (“Worte sind nur ein Medium von Ideen unter anderen; Musiker denken in Tönen, Architekten in Räumen, Maler in Formen und Farben, Mathematiker in Zahlen oder, abstrakter, in Funktionen.”).[42] In a way that breaks new ground, Dorschel proposes, as Eberhard Hüppe points out, to analyse ideas not just in terms of time, but also in terms of space.[43]

Tragic, comic, tragicomic

Mit Entsetzen Scherz (2022)

In his 2022 monograph Mit Entsetzen Scherz (Trifling with Despair), Andreas Dorschel starts from the historical observation that the concepts of ‘tragic’ and ‘comic’, since they had been first put forward in the 5th c. BC, were seen as opposed to each other.[44] If combined, we should then expect them to weaken each other. Yet tragicomic situations, Dorschel suggests, offer the surprising experience that those opposed qualities actually invigorate each other.[45] The book explores conditions that allow this to happen. To that purpose, Dorschel draws attention to the dimension of time.[46] To appear comic is a matter of the moment, he argues, while what is tragic manifests itself in “a grand arc” (“eine[m] großen Bogen”).[47] From this general tenet, Dorschel unfolds a poetics of the tragicomic incident in works from ancient Greece through renaissance England to modern Austria, employing the categories ‘irony’,[48] ‘intervention’[49] and ‘travesty’.[50]

Retrieving philosophical genres

Dorschel has taken a critical stance towards a blinkered academicism in philosophy.[51] He considers the narrowing-down of philosophical writing to articles and monographs a drain especially on epistemology, ethics and aesthetics. The now conventional forms of exposition leave little room for presenting a position while, as the argument develops, keeping various degrees of distance from the position presented. To that purpose, tapping richer resources of (dramatic and epic) irony as well as a heuristic of fiction, Dorschel has revived a number of genres such as the letter, dialogue, monologue and philosophical tale (‘conte philosophique’) that had flourished during the Renaissance and the Enlightenment,[52] but fell out of favour with modern academic philosophers.[53] Ten of Dorschel's dialogues, with an introduction to the philosophy of dialogue, were published in 2021 under the title Wortwechsel (literally: exchange of words).

  59. ^ In a résume of Dorschel’s article for Revue des Sciences Philosophiques et Théologiques (vol. 84 (2000), p. 187), André Robinet (1922–2016) said: "Si l’opposition entre émotion et entendement ou entre le domaine des affects et celui de la réflexion paraît évidente et habituelle, c’est néanmoins un tort de durcir l’opposition, car dans l’émotion il y a de la pensée. De la même manière, toute pensée, toute réflexion sont inséparables des affects qui les soutiennent. C’est une fine analyse de ces domaines que présente cet article."
  60. ^ Cf. Catherine Marten’s summary: “Dorschel rightly remarks that the short sentences in [Bernhardʼs] later work amount to a ‘laconic suadaʼ: ‘several short sentences, but the same words again and again in mere inversionʼ -- verbosity ‘born not of plenitude, but of scarcityʼ.” (“Dorschel bemerkt richtigerweise, dass es sich bei den kurzen Sätzen der späten Texte um eine ‘Suada des Lakonischenʼ handle, um ‘lauter kurze Sätze, doch immer wieder gleiche Worte in bloßer Umstellungʼ, man habe es hier mit einer Redseligkeit zu tun, die ‘nicht aus dem Vollen, sondern aus dem Kargen schöpf[e]ʼ.”) (Bernhards Baukasten: Schrift und sequenzielle Poetik in Thomas Bernhards Prosa. de Gruyter, Boston 2018 (Studien zur deutschen Literatur 217), p. 319)
  61. ^ By way of summary, Dittmar Dahlmann says: “In a recent study of space and place, Andreas Dorschel has, I believe, cogently argued that reference to space (even in science) presupposes place and, thus, a body locating itself. Retrieving an Aristotelian thought, Dorschel points out that only place, not space, features ‘top’ and ‘bottom’, ‘right’ or ‘left’, ‘back’ or ‘front’” (Die Weite Sibiriens und des Ozeans in Berichten und Aufzeichnungen von Forschungsreisenden von der Mitte des 18. bis zur Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts. In: Zeitschrift für Ostmitteleuropa-Forschung 63 (2014), no. 1, pp. 55–73, pp. 57–58).
  62. ^ Cf. Thomas Steinfeld, Der Welt abhandenkommen. Ein erstaunlicher Aufsatz: Andreas Dorschel über Eskapismus. In: Süddeutsche Zeitung 68, no. 39 (16 February 2012), p. 11. – For an application of Dorschel’s ideas on Nietzsche’s poetry see Michael Karlsson Pedersen, Zittern und Zweifel. Über musikalischen Eskapismus in Nietzsches ‘Venedig’-Gedicht. In: Christian Benne/Claus Zittel (ed.), Nietzsche und die Lyrik. Ein Kompendium. Metzler, Stuttgart 2017, pp. 299–309, specifically pp. 300–301, cf. p. 308.
  63. ^ Cf. Martin Gessmann, Das Urgestein der Moderne. In: Philosophische Rundschau 60 (2013), no. 1, pp. 1–34, pp. 30–31.
  64. ^ Stephan Trüby follows Dorschel in characterizing the classic type of polemics; for the early 21st century, however, Trüby diagnoses a stylistic deterioration regarding the genre. See his Architektur(-Theorie) und Polemik. In: Dietrich Erben (ed.), Das Buch als Entwurf. Fink, Paderborn 2019, pp. 478–489.
  65. ^ In terms of the theory of speech acts, Dorschel argues “that curses ever oscillate between the illocutionary and the perlocutionary. Someone who curses does not just voice words that represent items in the world, Andreas Dorschel points out; the curse is itself an ‘item’ in the world that is meant to hit the person cursed like a missile. In order to hit, the missile must have been triggered from the position of a sovereign – and it is the curse that lends itself to such empowerment, rendering the shooter sovereign.” Georg Mein, Aporien von Eid und Fluch: Unmögliche Versprechen in Goethes ‘Faust’. In: Modern Language Notes 131 (2016), no. 3, pp. 630–655, p. 642.
  66. ^ Georg Seeßlen and Markus Metz see the gist of Dorschel's argument in the idea that “dependence [Abhängigkeit]” is (or at least presents itself as) “power [Macht] transformed into necessity [Notwendigkeit]” (Freiheit und Kontrolle. Suhrkamp, Berlin 2017, p. 331).
  67. ^ Cf. Gustav Seibt, Die Häresie der Abgrenzungen. Andreas Dorschel entwirft ein korinthisches Christentum. In: Süddeutsche Zeitung 69, no. 293 (19 December 2013), p. 14. Seibt stresses the boldness ("Kühnheit") of the text.
