During the seminar we were to discuss the texts by Kant and Platon. Though there weren't much of a discussion, Johan, the seminar leader, gave some insight to the ideas presented in the mentioned texts. I can't recall all that was said ,so im gonna try to shortly present some of the things i've thought about in connection to the seminar:
I think that a qoute that in a good way sum up the thought of Kant in Critique of Pure Reason, which was mentioned during the seminar is"Perception without conception is blind, while conception without perception is empty",with perception here being our sense perception. So while we can experience the world through our senses we still need a way of organizing these impressions in a way that can be understood and explained.
The seminar clarified some of what Kant was trying to say, it raised an equal amount of questions, all relating to how we are to understand our existence. And while i to some extent enjoy contemplating the meaning of life, not even an infinite amount of blog posts would get me anywhere.
Tack för din kommentar. Roligt att denna centrala tanke hos Kant (och kanske även hos Platon) fann gehör hos dig.
