Is Fichte’s Position Transcendental Philosophy?

Abstract

The theme of Fichte and transcendental philosophy or even transcendental method is difficult since there is no agreement in the literature about what “transcendental philosophy” means. At present, any claim can be only normative, based on one’s interpretation of the term “transcendental.” What I offer is some preliminary remarks with the modest aim not of disposing of the problem but rather of clarifying some aspects.
