{"product_id":"9783030775490","title":"Kant, Wittgenstein, and the Performativity of Thought","description":"This book explores the idea that there is a certain performativity of thought connecting Kant’s \u003ci\u003eCritique of Pure Reason\u003c\/i\u003e and Wittgenstein’s \u003ci\u003eTractatus Logico-Philosophicus\u003c\/i\u003e. On this view, we make judgments and use propositions because we presuppose that our thinking is about something, and that our propositions have sense. Kant’s requirement of an \u003ci\u003ea priori\u003c\/i\u003e connection between intuitions and concepts is akin to Wittgenstein’s idea of the general propositional form as sharing a form with the world.    \u003cp\u003e Aloisia Moser argues that Kant speaks about acts of the mind, not about static categories. Furthermore, she elucidates the \u003ci\u003eTractatus\u003c\/i\u003e’ logical form as a projection method that turns into a so-called ‘zero method’, whereby propositions are merely the scaffolding of the world. In so doing, Moser connects Kantian reflective judgment to Wittgensteinian rule-following. She thereby presents an account of performativity centering neither on theories nor methods, but on the application enacting them in the first place.  \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46425312166129,"sku":"9783030775490","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/9783030775490_p0.jpg?v=1765106702","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783030775490","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
