"La profondissima quiete della contemplazione". Eidos e Schauen in Ernst Cassirer

As everybody knows Ernst Cassirer elaborated a philosophy of the symbolic forms, which in his intention had to offer a solution to the rigidity ad the limits of the former criticism. The concept of symbolic form certainly enables Cassirer to open criticism to new horizons: language, myth etc., but on the other it seems a far too generic heuristic instrument and Cassirer runs the risk of achieving a philosophy of identity as the centrality of the concept of Schauen, contemplation.
