Johan Jakob (or Jacob) Borelius (27 July[citation needed] 1823 – 1909) was an influential professor of theoretical philosophy at the University of Lund, Sweden[1] from 1866 to 1898. He has been called "The Last Swedish Hegelian."
Borelius was born in Skinnskatteberg. He obtained his doctorate from Uppsala University in 1848, afterward becoming a teacher in Kalmar, while he continued his studies under Christopher Jacob Boström.[citation needed] His overall philosophy is laid out in his work Metafysik (metaphysics), not published in full until after his death.[1]
Borelius is mentioned in a footnote of Jorge Luis Borges' short story "Three Versions of Judas."
