Outline (in English)

This course will consist of a close reading of Ernst Cassirer's Substanzbegriff und Funktionsbegriff: Untersuchung über die Grundfragen der Erkenntniskritik, to clarify the significance and role of Cassirer's conceptual theory, especially mathematical structuralism. At the beginning of the 20th century, to provide a basis for a precise natural science, it was necessary to clarify the possibility of mathematical cognition, its tool, in terms of logic. However, the traditional Logic of Aristotle could not meet this demand. For this reason, Cassirer constructed a new conceptual theory (logic) and attempted to base mathematics and precise natural science on this logic. In the class, we will clarify the significance and role of modern cognitive criticism in light of this historical background.
