The a priori Framework and System of Emergence and Realization of Reality is the FSR.
Thus when combined it will be FSRC.
The FSK is still valid in denoting how knowledge [end result] is constructed which include the FSR and the FSC. I will use it only when necessary to avoid confusion.
Why FSC Cognition is preferred over FSK Knowledge?
Kant used the term "Erkenntnis" which NK Smith [my main reference] translated in the CPR as 'knowledge'. Thus my usual reference to 'knowledge'.
However, Guyer & Wood translated "Erkenntnis" as 'Cognition' which reflect Kant's intended meaning more accurately.
AI [with reservations] explains;
Whenever I used FSK [knowledge], it would trigger Peter and others to insist there must be something human-mind-independent that is known and described.Accuracy: "Erkenntnis" in German refers to a broader concept than just "knowledge." It encompasses the entire process of acquiring knowledge, including perception, judgment, and understanding. "Knowledge" often implies a more finalized state of having certain information as true. "Cognition" better captures the active mental processes involved in forming knowledge.
•Breadth of Erkenntnis: Erkenntnis refers to the entire process of acquiring knowledge, encompassing perception, judgment, and understanding. It's not just the final, validated knowledge itself. "Knowledge" can sometimes imply a more certain and finalized state.
•Active vs. Passive: "Cognition" emphasizes the active mental process of knowing. It highlights how our minds shape and organize sensory experience. "Knowledge" can sometimes come across as a more passive state of simply possessing information.
•Limits of Knowledge: Kant, in the CPR, explores the limitations of human knowledge. He argues that some things are "noumena" while others are "phenomena" (appearances we can experience). "Cognition" better reflects this distinction, encompassing both the process of experiencing and the limitations of attaining complete knowledge.
Kant's Theory: Kant, in the CPR, is particularly interested in the limitations and structures of human cognition. He argues that our minds actively shape how we experience the world, not simply passively receiving information. "Cognition" emphasizes this active role of the mind in constructing knowledge.
Here's a breakdown of the key differences:
Knowledge: - A justified true belief (classic definition)
Cognition: - The entire mental process of acquiring knowledge, including perception, judgment, and understanding.
Using "cognition" highlights Kant's focus on the process of how we come to know things, rather than just the end product (justified true belief) that "knowledge" suggests.
The use of 'cognition' implies the entire process of how knowledge came about, i.e. there is an a priori process of emergence and realization of reality which is subsequently perceived, known, consciously experienced and described.
While Kant did not elaborate on the process of emergence and realization of reality, Kant did not accept that there are things that human-mind-independent, i.e. the noumena aka thing-in-itself which are illusions if reified.
From now on I will be using the term Framework and System of Cognition [FSRC].
The a priori Framework and System of Emergence and Realization of Reality is the FSR. Thus when combined it will be FSRC.
