Ernst Cassirer  

Définition

  • Ernst Cassirer (1874–1945), Jewish German philosopher, was one of the leading proponents of the Marburg school of neo-Kantianism and made a significant contribution to a philosophy of culture through his investigations into the role of symbolic representation in the constitution of human environments. He claimed that “symbolic forms,” such as myth, art, religion, and language, are the irreducible building blocks that frame and structure human perception and cultural reality.
