Educate me on German Idealism, please.

Durant's chapter on Kant in Story of Philosophy is surprisingly helpful for getting your initial footing in the subject. You can read it in like 20 minutes.

Google "German Philosophy 1760-1860 pdf" and begin reading, atleast the introduction.

Kant explained that how we know stuff exists is based on transcendental, synthetic a priori stuff
Schelling did some nutso shit
Fichte became obsessed with where the subject fits in a world based on prior concepts
Hegel changed the subject-object dichotomy so that objects aren't just dumb not-I stuff but rather are opportunities for self-knowledge
Schopenhauer simplified Kant's explanations of how stuff works by combining it with some parts of Fichte's I, but he's mostly famous because of his belief that the universe is some wicked shit
