Wow, you must have been in Fichte heaven. All this stuff is over my head though. Can you recommend a good intro to the man? I think S. Gardner has a Fichte/Schelling volume in the Routledge series, but it hasn't come out in the US yet.
Gardner has a book coming out and once it's out, if it as good as his book on Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, then I expect it will become the standard introduction. There is currently not a very good introductory book on Fichte alone, and this will still be the case after Gardner's book hits the streets.
The best work to get a solid overview of Fichte, I think, is Fred Neuhouser's __Fichte's Theory of Subjectivity__. It is clear, insightful, and I think pretty accessible, though I would not recommend it to someone with little philosophical background, but I know that is no problem for you.
Good introductory overviews of Idealism that contain good sections on Fichte are Frederick Beiser's book __German Idealism: The Struggle Against Subjectivism__ and Pinkard's __German Philosophy 1760-1860. There is also the more recent and introductory book by Will Dudley called __Understanding German Idealism__.
As far as reading the man himself, perhaps the best place to start is with the collection of writings __Introductions to the Wissenschaftslehre__ ed. Daniel Breazeale.
Thanks Gabe! AFAICT Gardner's book won't come out until 2010. Oh well, probably wouldn't get to it before then anyway. I read the Pinkard book, and I got up to the part about Fichte in the Beiser before I got distracted by some other shiny object or something. I have the Neuhouser book, but it looks a little advanced. I guess I'll just go back to the Beiser.
