| Abstract | Through the concept of the schema, as elaborated in The Critique of Pure Reason, and then refined in The Critique of Judgement, Kant tried to find an answer to the problem surrounding the epistemological relationship between symbol and object. In his answer, Kant combined elements from both the empiricism and rationalism of his time in such a way that its theory of knowledge cannot overcome an irreducible duality between intellectual activity and sensory activity. In trying to abolish this duality Cassirer (just like Piaget, although taking a different path) developed a genetic theory around a reformulation of the Kantian concept of the schema. The goal of the present article is to analyze Cassirer's genetic theory of conceptualization and to present, in the end, a brief comparison with Piaget's genetic epistemology. The Kantian source common to both thinkers allows us to evaluate the reach of Kantian constructivism more clearly and to better understand its limits and possibilities. |
