Ernst Laas


 

Ernst Laas (June 16, 1837-1885) was a German philosopher, was born at Ffirstenwalde. He studied theology and philosophy under Trendelenburg at Berlin, and eventually became Professor of Philosophy in the new University of Strasbourg. In his Analogien der Erfahrung (1876) he keenly criticized Kant's transcendentalism, and in his chief work Idealisinus und Positivismus (1878-1884), he drew a clear contrast between Platonism, from which he derived transcendentalism, and positivism, of which he considered Protagoras the founder. Laas in reality was a disciple of Hume. Throughout his philosophy he endeavours to connect metaphysics with ethics and the theory of education.
