Exploring the full range of Novalis's (the pen name of the German poet and philosopher Friedrich von Hardenberg) work, von Molnár shows how he dealt, in theory and practice, with a central issue in Romanticism and the emerging concept of the autonomous self and its relation to the other, or to the world.
