Abstract
Schelling’s philosophical orientations has undergone many changes during his lifetime; But it would be justifiable to be said that he has one fundamental issue, according to which being or absolute identity is not within the reach of mind. In the middle of 1790s, Schelling's philosophy begins with his engagement with Fichte’s attempts to pursue Kant's transcendental philosophy, granted priority to the activity of consciousness in the formation of the recognisable world. Together with this comes the starting of an everlasting unanimity with Spinoza’s belief that philosophy must begin with a self-sufficient Absolute. Near the beginning of the next century Schelling produces the Naturphilosophie, which gives the role of activity of a subject to the nature and names it 'productivity'. So, he rejects all approaches which regards nature inanimate and strictly contrary to living thinking. He comes to the 'identity philosophy' in the early 1800s according to which 'mind' and 'matter', the 'ideal' and the 'real' are only different degrees, or outlooks, of the Same. During this period, he eventually dissents from Fichte, whom he considers as failing to move out of the realm of self-consciousness to a being as the foundation of consciousness.
