The aim of this paper is to investigate the role of the speech in the philosophy of Fichte, mainly in the Vorlesungenüber die Bestimmung des Gelehrten and in the Über Geist und Buchstabe in der Philosophie. For this, tries to show, at first, that Fichte´s concept of scholar [Gelehrter] owes both the Kantian concept of genius and Cicero’s conception according to which it is the duty of the scholar, as an educator, attach to his philosophical qualities also that of oratory. Secondly, the article retraces the distinction between spirit and letter and tries to show how public speaking can be thought of as a way to awaken the spirit of the listener through a theory of productive imagination.Downloads
