Habermas, Nietzsche, Kant, transcental, critique of knowledgeAbstract
Written as an afterword to an anthology of Nietzsche’s writings on the theory of knowledge published in 1968, Habermas continues here what he began in Knowledge and Human Interests, released that same year. Highlighting the elements of Nietzschean thought representative of an unconventional theory of knowledge, such as a new deduction of the “categories”, by which the transcendental is naturalized and brought back to the structures of language, Habermas also shows how and why this critique of knowledge resulted in a doctrine of the perspectives of the affects, whose impermeability to reflection would have made Nietzsche the author of the last chapter in the prehistory of positivism.
