Synthesis and Intentional Objectivity

Mehr zum Buch

The exploration of Anschauung reveals significant differences between Kant and Husserl's philosophical systems. While both philosophers acknowledge the visual aspect of knowledge, Kant views Anschauung as a preliminary stage of cognition, emphasizing its role in the synthesis of perception rather than as the pinnacle of understanding. In his framework, pure reason interacts with data through the understanding, positioning Anschauung as a means of reception rather than an endpoint. This nuanced examination sheds light on the structured nature of their respective philosophies.
