Encounter with Friedrich Albert Lange

View through CrossRef
This chapter describes Cohen’s relationship with Friedrich Albert Lange, who was his supporter and advocate. Despite the friendship between the two, it is argued that Cohen and Lange were philosophical antipodes: that Lange was a nominalist, empiricist, and champion of psychologism, Cohen a Platonist, rationalist, and opponent of psychologism. Even in ethics, Lange was an advocate of sentimentalism rather than Kantian-style rationalism.
