Abstract

Apel's philosophy is mainly an attempt of "transformation of philosophy" on a pragmatic and transcendental basis. This transformation relies heavily on the notion of argumentation. It is the purpose of this text (which is partially conceived as an introduction to Apel's thought) to give an overview of Apel's main theses, and to show that they exhibit a particular "manner of thinking" (Denkungsart, in Kant's terms). One refers this manner of thinking as "the manner of thinking of the limit".
