Abstract
PRINGE, HERNÁN. Conocimiento puro y cálculo infinitesimal en el neokantismo de Hermann Cohen. Rev. latinoam. filos. [online]. 2020, vol.46, n.2, pp.104-119. ISSN 1852-7353. http://dx.doi.org/10.36446/rlf2020149.
The aim of this paper is to analyze one of the central as- pects of Hermann Cohen's philosophy: the relationship that his Logic of pure knowledge establishes between pure thought and infinitesimal calculus. We argue that Cohen's interpretation of calculus seeks to ground in pure knowledge all the elements that Kant distinguishes in empirical intuition: both its matter (sensation) and its form (time and space). In this way, by means of infinitesimal calculus, Cohen tries to account for knowledge wi- thout appealing to any receptivity.
Keywords : differential calculus; pure knowledge; space; time; sensation.
