Kant'a ve oradan yola cikarak Hegel'e elestirileri -Kant'a yonelmis- "Bu adam aklin evrimini bilmezdi, zaten otistik gibiydi"nin otesine gecmiyor. Fenomenlere mahkum oldugumuzun kabulu yalnizca tek bir yerde o da menfi bir paragrafta geciyor. Ozgurluk-Akil-Duyular arasi iliski (Agacin govdesi ve sonra ozgurluk katilarak yapilan kapi mentesesi hikayeleri) hic bir yerde incelenmemis. Adim adim bir matematik teoremi ispati gibi felsefe yapma turu, aslinda Kant'in beceremedigi tutarli olma iddiasi / anlasilmayacak sekilde bulanik felsefe yapma olarak asagilanmis. Bir de sanki bu bulanik felsefe yapma turu Kant tarafindan icat edilmis gibi. Yavru, Etika'yi bildin mi? Spinoza basitken, Kant mi seni gerdi? Aristo'dan Fizik'i Feynman'dan okur gibi mi okudun?

Cok gencken okumustum ikiliyi. Takmamam iyi olmus, eski notlara baktim, Goethe guzellemeleri haric takmamisim Kaufmann'i. Iyi de yapmisim. Dusurdum notunu.
