Herder's Concept of Force

Source: Wikipedia

Force (Kraft) is perhaps the most important concept in Herder’s philosophy as a whole. The talk will explore both what Herder means by force and the ways it informs his accounts of the soul-body relationship, morality, and the phenomenon of life, showing how, in its many guises, this concept constitutes the key to understanding his anti-dualism(s).
