A crítica de Frege ao idealismo em <i>Der Gedanke</i>

Abstract

According to Frege, the basic mistake of psychologism is its conception of the subject, which is centered in the principle that only immanent contents of consciousness can be my objects. Now, this thesis is not only false, but also refutable. The refutation itself appears later in Der Gedanke. This is the last sense of the critique of idealism brought about in that text. It is a necessary and unavoidable step to assure the possibility that we grasp thoughts, possibility that Frege deals with in great part of his 1918 article.
