On this view, we make judgments and use propositions because we presuppose that our thinking is about something, and that our propositions have sense. Kant's requirement of an \u003ci\u003ea priori\u003c\/i\u003e connection between intuitions and concepts is akin to Wittgenstein's idea of the general propositional form as sharing a form with the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAloisia Moser argues that Kant speaks about acts of the mind, not about static categories. Furthermore, she elucidates the \u003ci\u003eTractatus\u003c\/i\u003e' logical form as a projection method that turns into a so-called 'zero method', whereby propositions are merely the scaffolding of the world. In so doing, Moser connects Kantian reflective judgment to Wittgensteinian rule-following. She thereby presents an account of performativity centering neither on theories nor methods, but on the application enacting them in the first place. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aloisia Moser\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030775526\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030775520\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.38d","brand":"Aloisia Moser","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44077812842751,"sku":"9783030775520","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bafae7df-0d93-482f-bdb5-ebebf23ac33d.jpg?v=1685471902","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kant-wittgenstein-and-the-performativity-aloisia-moser-9783030775520","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
