- Title
Conclusion: The »Wissenschaftslehre« as »Mathesis of the Mind«.
- Authors
Wood, David W.
- Abstract
The article provides the author's views on the doctrine of science or the Wissenschaftslehr of German philosopher Johann Gottlieb Fichte wherein he considers it as a form of philosophical mathesis or a mathematized theory of the structure and activity of rational mind. It mentions the views of Fichte on Euclidean or synthetic geometry as an excellent propedeutic for the Wissenschaftslehr. It concludes that geometry serves as Fichte's touchstone for his own methodology and philosophical system.
