Course description

In this seminar we will distinguish between  notions of intuition to which the analytic tradition has reacted. Kant’s concept-intuition distinction and his conception of space and time as ideal, a priori forms of intuition were considered refuted and obsolete in light of the discovery of non euclidean geometries and their deployment in physics, the logical discoveries and criticism by Frege, and the attack on the analytic-synthetic by Quine. In this seminar we will revisit these reactions and reconsider the implications that they have been taken to have.
