Definition
"La philosophie transcendantale" is a branch of philosophy that investigates the fundamental conditions and structures that make knowledge and experience possible, focusing on how the mind organizes and interprets reality rather than on the content of knowledge itself.
Etymology
The term "la philosophie transcendantale" originates from the Latin word 'transcendere,' meaning 'to climb over' or 'go beyond,' combined with 'philosophie,' derived from the Greek 'philosophia,' meaning 'love of wisdom.' It was popularized by Immanuel Kant to describe his approach that goes beyond empirical experience to explore the a priori conditions of knowledge.
