INB4 but muh Hegel
>I would mention that in [the Science of Logic] I frequently refer to the Kantian philosophy (which to many may seem superfluous) because whatever may be said, both in this work and elsewhere, about the precise character of this philosophy and about particular parts of its exposition, it constitutes the base and the starting point of recent German philosophy and that ITS MERIT REMAINS UNAFFECTED BY WHATEVER FAULTS MAY BE FOUND IN IT. The reason too why reference must often be made to it in the objective logic is that it enters into detailed consideration of important, more specific aspects of logic, whereas later philosophical works have paid little attention to these and in some instances have only displayed a crude — not unavenged — contempt for them. The philosophising which is most widespread among us does not go beyond the Kantian results, that Reason cannot acquire knowledge of any true content or subject matter and in regard to absolute truth must be directed to faith. But what with Kant is a result, forms the immediate starting-point in this philosophising, so that the preceding exposition from which that result issued and which is a philosophical cognition, is cut away beforehand. The Kantian philosophy thus serves as a cushion for intellectual indolence which soothes itself with the conviction that everything is already proved and settled. Consequently FOR GENUINE KNOWLEDGE, for a specific content of thought which is not to be found in such barren and arid complacency, one MUST turn to that preceding exposition.

I like Hegel by the way; the most Kantian of Kantians

Western philosophy had devolved far too far up its own ass by Kant's day to be useful for anything but thought stimulation. There's no point to read beyond Aurelius, the Gitas, the Bible, and the Dao De Jing, and letting your own spirit guide you to the truth. Letters fail us far before the point that this overwrought baroque nonsense was printed.

>Now here we would at once remark that Kant s philosophy has a threefold relation to that of his predecessors. First, as we have just seen, to the philosophy of Locke, confirming and extending it; secondly, to that of Hume, correcting and making use of it, a relation which is most distinctly ex pressed in the " Prolegomena " (that most beautiful and comprehensible of all Kant s important writings, which is far too little read, for it facilitates immensely the study of his philosophy); thirdly, a decidedly polemical and de structive relation to the Leibnitz-Wolfian philosophy. All three systems ought to be known before one proceeds

>Matter and Form. These two conceptions lie at the foundation of all other reflection, so inseparably are they connected with every mode of exercising the understanding.

Yes but what is reason behinde his decision to separate matter from forms and vice versa, placing matter externaly (as sensory datum) to human mind while placing forms as foundation of human perception?

It may well happen that what is in itself the more certain may seem to us the less certain on account of the weakness of our intelligence, "which is dazzled by the clearest objects of nature; as the owl is dazzled by the light of the sun" (Metaph. ii, lect. i). Hence the fact that some happen to doubt about articles of faith is not due to the uncertain nature of the truths, but to the weakness of human intelligence; yet the slenderest knowledge that may be obtained of the highest things is more desirable than the most certain knowledge obtained of lesser things, as is said in de Animalibus xi.

Kant didn't come up with it, it goes back to Aristotle

But hilemorphism is anything but a srparation of form and matter. Aristotle does speak of them separately but does not threat them as separating aspects of reallity they are necessery conected.

so does Kant

>Thoughts without content are void; intuitions without conceptions, blind. Hence it is as necessary for the mind to make its conceptions sensuous (that is, to join to them the object in intuition), as to make its intuitions intelligible (that is, to bring them under conceptions). Neither of these faculties can exchange its proper function. Understanding cannot intuite, and the sensuous faculty cannot think. In no other way than from the united operation of both, can knowledge arise. But no one ought, on this account, to overlook the difference of the elements contributed by each; we have rather great reason carefully to separate and distinguish them.

You missunderstood me.
Aristotle gives account of them separetly but does not separate them in reallity.

Kant does exactly that by separating matter (sense datum) from form (apriori forms), placing matter externaly and placing forms internaly. Aristotle does not do that. He never separated matter and form one from another.

Yes yes. But im telling you i am asking why does he separate them? By what reasson? Because it seems to me his whole tranacedental philosophy is built upon this separation of form and matter for which he gives no argument why it is like that.

you misunderstood the quote if you think this. The phenomenal world is the UNITY of sensation (matter) and pure intuition and Categories (form). Without both there is no world. The alternative would be formless matter or matterless form.
