 | | Wilhelm Dilthey born Nov. 19, 1833, Biebrich, near Wiesbaden, Nassau died Oct. 1, 1911, Seis am Schlern, near Bozen, South Tirol, Austria-Hungary. |
 | | Although I found myself frequently in agreement with the epistemological school of Locke, Hume, and Kant, I nevertheless found it necessary to conceive differently the nexus of facts of consciousness which we together recognise as the basis of philosophy. |
 | | Apart from a few beginnings such as those of Herder and Wilhelm von Humboldt, which were not scientifically developed, previous epistemology - Kant's as well as that of the empiricists - has explained experience and cognition in terms of facts that are merely representational. |
