ABSTRACT

These reflections aim at showing that in Kant as well as in Schopenhauer speaking about the subject's end is justified. Concerning the author of Critique of Pure Reason, such an affirmation might be objected to on the grounds that the whole Kantian philosophy is developed through a rationality and systematization that would hardly allow the loss of a representation based on self-consciousness. Nonetheless, such a rationality contains more ambiguities and paradoxes than a first reading would suppose. As for Schopenhauer, it is exactly by virtue of his concept of will - a blind and irrational will - that one can a fortiori claim the end of subject.
