The semiotic articulation of the concept, symbol and metaphor in §59 of the Kritik der Urteilskraft

Abstract

The current paper has the pretension to show the articulation between concept (Begriff), symbol (Symbol) and metaphor (Metapher) in the kantian works, from the symbolic hipotiposis problem mainly shown in §59 in the Critique of Judgement (Kritik der Urteilskraft), retaking the subsumption approach shown in the Critique of Pure Reason (Kritik der reinen Vernunft), from a linguistic and semiologic perspective. Also, this work seeks to stablish how concept, symbol and metaphor can be considered as different modalities of linguistic sign, articulated from the stability and sense given by the use inside of a speaking community, and therefore, they can be considerated as different but complementary cognitive ambits
