Good game!

Really, I don't like this guy, despite the fact that we've never met. Why? Well, first of all, he steals my concept of the dialectic and then he totally misuses it. I made it clear that "dialectic" is a way only of detecting bogus arguments, of exposing the illusion of knowledge. So what does Hegel do? He puts dialectic at the center of philosophy and insists that it yields the highest truth. What gives?

If that weren't bad enough, this guy goes on to undermine—or attempt to undermine—my whole program of transcendental philosophy. My approach depends on drawing a sharp distinction between our knowledge and the logical conditions that make that knowledge possible. Philosophy's concern is solely with the latter, with the attempt to specify in advance what we can know; that is how I save philosophy from engaging in endless, pointless speculation.


Did I mention I don't like Hegel very much?
