Abstract

According to a formula already established, the philosophy of Eric Weil is a post-Hegelian Kantianism. But in what sense is it a Kantianism? To answer this question, we must emphasize two aspects: first, the systematic design of Eric Weil holds a place for the philosophy of Kant, revealing its limitations. Secondly, that his philosophy is a resumption of the Kantian way of thinking. In the following pages, I will discuss these two aspects, starting from on the thoughts of Eric Weil to resume his Kantian source. More precisely, I will start from the Logic of Philosophy to reach the Critique of Judgment and the interpretation given by Weil.
