Lecture: Prof. Luca Illetterati (Università degli Studi di Padova): The Philosophy of Philosophy. Kant and Hegel on the Scientific Nature of Philosophy

You are kindly invited to the lecture given by Luca Illetterati (Università degli Studi di Padova): The Philosophy of Philosophy. Kant and Hegel on the Scientific Nature of Philosophy. The lecture will be held on October 4, 15:50, Faculty of Arts (Charles University), nám. Jana Palacha 2, room no. 225V.

Abstract: In this contribution, I will focus on Kant’s and Hegel’s “philosophy of philosophy” in order to show in which sense, according to Kant and Hegel, philosophy is science and at the same time does not constitute a particular scientific discipline. Starting from the question of the scientific nature of philosophy, I will show how the specific relationship between philosophical science and other kinds of sciences is embedded in the horizon of Kantian and Hegelian frameworks.
