This federal Project Grant award to Florida State University (FSU) from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) under the Promotion of the Humanities Research program (CFDA 45.161) provides $300,000 to publish a translated six-volume edition of the philosophical works of Johann Nicolaus Tetens, accompanied by a parallel online German edition. Specifically, the funding will support the translation, editing, and annotation of the second volume containing the first half of Tetens' magnum opus, "Philosophical Essays on Human Nature and Its Development." Additionally, the project aims to complete the online German edition of this volume and begin transcription and editing of the manuscript for the final, sixth volume of the translated edition.

The tetens project [the tetens project aims to publish in print form a six-volume translated edition of the philosophical works, broadly construed, of johann nicolaus tetens (1736-1807), accompanied by a parallel online german edition of the same works. The next phase of the project, for which we are presently seeking funds, will see the translation, editing and annotating of the second volume containing the first half of tetens?S magnum opus, philosophical essays on human nature and its development (1777). At the same time, we hope to complete the online german edition of this volume and begin transcription and editing of the manuscript that will later form the basis for the final, sixth volume of the translated edition.]
