Morphology

Schellingian = Schelling (transparent) = Schelling + ian

Standard adjectival/nationality/follower-forming suffix '-ian' added to the proper name 'Schelling', giving a clear relational meaning.

Etymology

Schellingian comes from the name of the German philosopher Schelling plus the ending -ian, which means 'relating to' or 'belonging to'. Like Newtonian or Shakespearean, it describes ideas or style that come from that person, so Schellingian means something connected with Schelling's philosophy.
