Resumen

O objetivo deste artigo é dar foco a um capítulo específico dentro do amplo contexto de debate entre o movimento neokantiano com a filosofia analítica. Trata-se da discussão entre Ernst Cassirer e Bertrand Russell, que toma lugar na história da filosofia nas décadas finais do século dezenove e iniciais do vinte. Em específico, veremos as posições de cada um dos autores em questão no que se refere a natureza da lógica e ao programa logicista. Para tanto, num primeiro momento, reconstruiremos essa discussão partindo de Russell. Daí, apresentaremos a posição dos neokantianos (com maior ênfase em Cassirer) nessa narrativa. Feito isso, trataremos da crítica do filósofo inglês a noção de “lógica transcendental” e suas implicações na filosofia de Cassirer, bem como a de seus predecessores na escola de Marburgo. Depois traremos ao debate a reposta do neokantiano ao filósofo inglês; para, por fim, tratarmos de alguns aspectos do logicismo defendido por Cassirer.
