The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms
Ernst Cassirer occupies a unique space in twentieth-century philosophy. A great liberal humanist, his multi-faceted work spans the history of philosophy, the philosophy of science, intellectual history, aesthetics, epistemology, the study of language and myth, and more. Cassirer’s thought also anticipates the renewed interest in the origins of analytic and continental philosophy in the Twentieth Century and the divergent paths taken by the 'logic…
In Irons
A sailing ship that becomes stalled with its bow to the wind is said to be "in irons." In this groundbreaking examination of America`s Revolutionary War economy, the phrase is an apt metaphor for the inability of that economy to free itself from the constraints of Britain`s navy. Richard Buel Jr. here investigates for the first time the influence of Britain`s navy on the American revolutionary economy, particularly its agricultural sector, and th…

Symbolisme et phénomènes de base (Basisphänomene)
Le texte de Michael Krois (qu’il n’a pu finir de rédiger et dont le résumé est ici établi par les éditeurs de ce numéro) est consacré essentiellement aux « phénomènes de bases » dans leur articulation avec une notion cruciale chez Cassirer, celle de « prégnance symbolique ». Il s’agit de montrer l’originalité du symbolisme de Cassirer, qui s’enracine dans le geste, dans le corps, dans un dynamisme pré-lingistique, avant toute tentative pour formu…
The priority of “symbolism” over language in Cassirer’s philosophy
A passion can only be overcome by a stronger passion’
‘Philosophical anthropology’ was initiated in the late 1920s as an alternative to abstract philosophical definitions of human nature (‘animal rationale’) and to the exclusively empirical, physical study of anthropology. Philosophical anthropology focused upon what it meant to be a human being. Its founders concentrated upon the situated existence of human beings and their ability to think beyond and to deny even what was actually vitally importan…
Ernst Cassirer’s philosophy of biology
The first part of this essay outlines Cassirer’s philosophy of biology in the context of philosophy of science in the 20th century, giving an overview of Cassirer’s different writings on the philosophy of biology. The second part outlines his treatment of what he took to be the chief philosophical problem in the philosophy of biology: the conflict between mechanism and vitalism. Cassirer interpreted this conflict as a methodological debate, not a…

Cassirer's "Prototype and Model" of Symbolism
The ArgumentErnst Cassirer's fundamental conception of symbolism (symbolic pregnance) derives from what may be called a bio-medical model of semiotics, not a linguistic one. He employs both models in his philosophy of symbolic forms, but his notion of the "prototype and model of symbolism" was not derived from linguistics. The sources for his conception of symbolism include the ethnographic and anthropological literature he discovered in Aby Warb…
A Note about Philosophy and History
Although Cassirer's four-volume Das Erkenntnisproblem in der Philosophie und Wissenschaft der neueren Zeit has long been highly regarded as an example of historical scholarship — Cassirer was awarded the golden Kuno-Fischer Medal of the University of Heidelberg in July 1914 for the first two volumes (published 1906 and 1907) — its importance for understanding his theoretical position seems to have gone unrecognized. In the English-speaking world …

Charles S. Peirce
As the title suggests, ApePs study traces the development of Peirce's thought through the sixty years of his prolific philosophical career. This study is a must for all serious students of American philosophy in general and for Peirce scholars in particular. It is intelligent and sensitive. It succeeds in situating Peirce's work among the thinkers of his own time and points out in great clarity its relevance for the intellectual challeges of our …
