Example text
The German scholars brought to Kazan University up-to-date knowledge in exact sciences, modern educational ideas, and a great deal of philosophical erudition, Kant’s ideas in particular. In great measure they were responsible for the conversion of Kazan University from an isolated intellectual oasis at the threshold of Siberia into a cultural centre alert to modern scientific developments. 16 After Napoleon’s defeat, the general political reaction in Europe manifested itself in a conscious effort to bolster the authority of monarchy and the church.
At the University, humanities were particularly emphasised, for Humboldt preferred to educate free men with an interdisciplinary curriculum rather than produce narrow specialists or professionals. For Humboldt, inclined towards idealist philosophy and the intellectual intuition of Friedrich Wilhelm von Schelling (1775–1854), the pursuit of pure knowledge was the paramount goal of education. In the 1820s, Carl Freiherr Stein von Altenstein (1770–1840) succeeded Humboldt as Kultusminister. Von Altenstein, much influenced by Immanuel Kant’s (1724–1804) stress on sense intuition and empiricism, began to shift policy gradually towards a greater emphasis on teaching natural sciences.
