Abstract

The paper, focused on the analysis of the first four lessons of the Transzendentale Logik II of 1812, deals with the status of transcendental logic in the construction of Fichte’s Wissenschaftslehre. From the historical and textual point of view, the problem investigated involves the definition of transcendental logic as an introduction to the Wissenschaftslehre (§ 2) and the relationship of this definition with different approaches to logic in the post-kantian debate (Fries, Reinhold, Bardili, Kant § 3). From a theoretical point of view the paper involves a reflection on the meaning of the so-called recursivity of the Wissenschaftslehre and draws attention to the ways in which the recursivity allows for a restructuring of experience and rationality. This perspective allows us to clarify two elements implicit in Fichte’s transcendental approach: the difference between formal and transcendental logic and the propaedeutic dimension of this difference, which would show its proximity to the assumptions of the Dewey´s theory of investigation (§ 4).
