82This paper examines a little-known work by Naturphilosoph Henrich Steffens (1773-1845), titled Ãœber die Lappen und Pastor N.J.C.V. Stockfleth’s Wirksamkeit unter diesen. Despite looking like a mere pièce d’occasion the text represents both an important insight into Steffens’ thought and a highly original take on the Romantic anthropological debate, especially with regard to the long-standing problem of race differences. In particular, the Ãœber die Lappen raises some well-founded objections about the alleged subalternity of some races, indirectly questioning the racist outlet of the anthropological debate in the twentieth century. Against such assumptions Steffens introduces the possibility of a cross-cultural outcome for anthropology, which will end up being surprisingly grounded in a theodicy of race and a philosophical- theological anthropology.
