This paper claims the hypothesis that some of the statements on education presented by Fichte in his “Deductive Plan” for the University of Berlin can be systematically inserted in his philosophy. To this end, it articulates three theses: (1) the need to criticize the teaching activity and the functioning of the university at the time Fichte lived in as an outdated institution in relation to the purposes of its existence; (2) the prescription of the intellectual's task in the face of his present as demanding from him a philosophical and, at the same time, historical knowledge; and (3) the assumption that the exercise of the criticism of reason is, although not exclusively, "reflective".
