| French Revolution | Comte | Gaus I 385 French Revolution/Comte/Plant: One of the more complex responses to the French Revolution was to be found in the writings of Auguste Comte, the positivist philosopher. He took the view that the Revolution was a destructive force and that it did not have the capacity to construct anything out of what it had destroyed. His account of the Revolution was embedded within his overall theory or philosophy of history for which he claimed scientific sanction. History/Comte: His view was that history passed through three stages: the theological, the metaphysical, and the scientific or positivist age which we are now entering. Morality and politics would be emancipated from theology and meta- physics and would be grounded in physical science. Education/religion/Comte: This would form the basis of a common educational system and would also constitute a new religion of humanity that, because it was based on the universality of science, could be shared by all (Comte, 1998)(1). VsComte: By putting man, the grand étre, at the centre of his thought, he ensured that other Counter-Enlightenment French Catholic thinkers regarded his work as satanic. >Positivism, >Education, >Religion, >Politics, >Enlightenment. 1.

| History | Dilthey | Pfotenhauer IV 62 History/understanding/Vico/Dilthey: Dilthey wanted to adhere to Vico's principle of the general comprehensibility of historical phenomena. This should be asserted against the positivist indifference that was determined to look at history and nature in the same way. (DiltheyVsComte). >A. Comte. Dilthey's thesis: Dilthey proposed to interpret the event from the point of view of the objectives of interested, value-oriented subjects.(1) >Purposes, >Intentions, >Action. Pfotenhauer IV 63 HeideggerVsDilthey/GadamerVsDilthey/Pfotenhauer: From Heidegger(3) to Gadamer(3) the reproach of historical-esthetic presumption arose; one wanted to delightfully take posession of the humane in a way of understanding everything. The limitations of perspectives that have been shaped by biographical history are not methodically taken into account sufficiently. "Everyone is the most distant thing to oneself". >Understanding, >Hermeneutics, >Self-knowledge. Nietzsche's dictum could be regarded as a pointed wording for this objection. Pfotenhauer IV 97 Form/Content/Art/Nietzsche/Pfotenhauer: (F.Nietzsche 1888(4)): One is an artist at the price, that what all non-artists call 'form' is perceived as content, as the 'thing itself'. Content/Nietzsche/Pfotenhauer: the content would be the internal coherence itself, the internal coherence of the content. >Content, >Historiography. 1. M. Riedel Verstehen oder erklären?

| Positivism | Comte | Wright I 152 Positivism/Comte/Wright, G. H.: Comte's positivism is above all science theory (Cf. Comte 1830(1)). Comte's ultimate goal was to be an advocate of the "positive" scientific spirit in the study of social phenomena. Coupled with this was a strong belief in the usefulness of scientific knowledge for social reforms. (1830, lecon I, 8). Wright, G. H.: it is perhaps not uninteresting that Comte can be compared to Francis Bacon as a herald of a technological view of knowledge. Both contributed significantly to the creation of a certain "scientistic climate of opinion", but almost nothing at all was contributed to the actual scientific progress. (G. H. von WrightVsBacon, G.

| Positivism | Wright | I 152 Positivism/Wright, G. H.:can be characterized in different ways: a) associated with a phenomenalist or sensualist epistemology; and b) modern positivism: associated with a verification theory of meaning. c) associated with a "scientist" and "technological" conception of knowledge and its uses. >Phenomenalism, >Sensualism, >Verificationism, >Meaning, >Scientism, >Technology.

| Truth | Vico | Pfotenhauer IV 61 Truth/Vico: Thesis: verum et factum convertuntur - the truth is convertible with the thought, i. e. synonymous. See K. Löwith(1). History/Vico/Understanding/Kant/Pfotenhauer: Kant took up this idea of Vico in a modified form. He assumed that practical action was possible as a reasonable activity. >Reason/Kant, >I. Kant, >History, >Understanding. This could become visible in opposition to the contingency of the mere factual event. The condition is that this practical action is subject to reason as a normative, value-setting force. History/HegelVsKant/Hegel: Hegel, on the other hand, wanted the principle of practical philosophy as a binding statement about the actual direction of history to be understood. The events in history would therefore be interpreted as progressive self-realization of the human species under the sign of spiritual spontaneity. >G.W.F. Hegel.
