My Cassirer collection. Language and Myth, An Essay On Man: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Human Culture, The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms: Mythical Thinking, The Logic of the Cultural Sciences, The Individual & the Cosmos: Renaissance Philosophy. #Cassirer #neokantian

Note that Hatano Seiichi's "Time and Eternity", published during the war in 1943, quotes #Cassirer / the "Philosophy of Symbolic Forms" as a chief reference in thinking about "cultural time".

"[#Ich und #Du] sind in- und miteinander, indem sie sich in dieser Weise im Sprechen, im Denken, in allen Arten des künstlerischen Ausdrucks Einheit bleiben."

Ernst #Cassirer (1874-1945), zit. n. Ute Daniel, Kompendium #Kulturgeschichte.

Image of a rocky coastal cave with turquoise water and natural stone formations. Overlaid text reads: “Signals and symbols belong to two different universes of discourse: a signal is a part of the physical world of being, and a symbol is part of the human world of meaning.” — Ernst Cassirer Humanism Church logo at bottom left. Text at bottom right reads: humanism.church

Symbols are human creations that exist separately from the physical signals that we all experience. Since we can only perceive signals through the veil of our senses symbols and signals are equally real to us. #Philosophy #Cassirer #Symbols #Humanism #HumanismChuch

Now reading Nakamura Yūjirō's chapter on "topology", which starts from the premise that modern "Western" philosophy privileged #time and did not seriously engage the subject of #space. And I wonder, why would he say that? #Merleau-Ponty for one was long translated by that time, as was #Cassirer.

The book would, like many others, be even better without repeating the opposition between stereotyped "Western" and "Eastern" (Buddhist) ways of thinking. Ironically, it shows that by pointing to #Cassirer and his notion of functional concepts in explaining Buddhist thought.

We inhabit more than the physical world, we dwell in symbols, stories, and meaning. To understand humanity is to see how imagination shapes reality. 🌌✨#Humanism #Philosophy #Cassirer #HumanismChurch

beweisbares Errklärungsprinzip, den Marktbegriff von #Hayek als regulative Idee (im Sinn von #Kant) und als mythische Vorstellung von Ordnung (im Sinn von #Cassirer) und wie sich dieser Mythos aktuell (am Beispiel) von #Trump mit den mythischen Denken der Rechtsradikalen verbinden kann.

It's official! Edith Stein and Ernst Cassirer are my favorite 20th-Century philosophers. #cassirer #edithstein

und hierzu abschließend noch ein kleiner Kommentar,

lest euch ein in die #DavoserDisputation #Cassirer #Heidegger um #ThomasMann verstehen zu lernen ...

Albert #Speer, the architect of #Hitler, who got away with life in #Nuremberg, read "The #Myth of State" by Ernst #Cassirer while in jail. This, Speer later said, made him realize how his devotion for the #dictator made himself a #monster.

We have no more reliable access to the knowledge of human nature than by exploring the nature of language, of art, of science, of religion, of morality. #cassirer #philosophy
