Description:Excerpt from New Ways of Ontology It goes without saying that in as summary a discussion as the present one we cannot do justice to medieval metaphysics. But here our concern is not with medieval metaphysics but with contemporary issues. For these, it is imperative that we achieve a clear view of certain fundamental traits of the onto logical views which were at the basis of that metaphysics. We must learn from the mistakes of these old ontological views, so that any and every attempt at a new ontology may dissociate itself unambiguously and consciously from all such errors. The critical epistemology of the modern age from Descartes down to Kant did not succeed in completely replacing the old ontology with a new doctrine of equal value. But it had so thoroughly destroyed its presuppositions that a metaphysics erected on the old basis was no longer possible. The Critique of Pure Reason, in which the work of thorough houseclean ing reached its end, marks a historical boundary beyond which ontological thinking all but vanishes. This is noteworthy, be cause the Kantian critique was actually not leveled against the foundations of the old ontology but rather against the specula tive-rational metaphysics which had been built upon it.
