Im Angesicht der so genannten ‚kopernikanischen Wende’ sowie infolge der imponierenden Fortschritte der Astronomie in den folgenden zwei Jahrhunderten haben sich die Vorstellungen der Europäer vom Universum radikal verändert. Eine der wichtigsten Konsequenzen war die Säkularisierung des Weltbildes. Denker und Dichter wie J.G. Fichte und Jean Paul reflektierten über Gott, den Menschen und das Absolute, wobei sie einen charakteristischen, neuen metaphernreichen Diskurs kreierten. Die Bilder entnahmen sie der alten und neuen Astronomie.

In the face of the so -called “Copernican Revolution”, and also due to the incredible development of astronomy over centuries, whose consummation was Newton’s physics, Europeans’ views on the Universe dramatically transformed, primarily, were symbolically secularized. The thinkers and writers from the turn of the 18th and 19th century, such as J.G. Fichte and Jean Paul, reflected on God, the Absolute, and human, creating a characteristic discourse full of metaphors taken from the cosmology of their time and from the past.
