    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Abdi, Reza (Author) ; Golshani, Mahdi (Supervisor) ; Parsania, Hamid (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    On the one hand, the general schema of systems of thought-philosophy is in the light of an initial position and a brief overview of the "being of reality", and on the other hand, by analyzing "the recognition of man from the world." Accordingly, philosophical systems will be dealt with from the point of view of the philosophy of philosophy by explaining the mechanism and stages of development, evaluation and evaluation of the recognition of "the foundation of the universe."An overview of these two concepts and their relationship is necessary in order to prepare the preconditions for the relationship between metaphysics and epistemology. "Metaphysics," refers to the existing Mamma, and... 

    A Comparative Study of Kantian and Fichtean Ethics

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Berjisian, Mohammad Hesam (Author) ; Azadegan, Ebrahim (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The thesis at hand provides a comparative study of Kantian and Fichtean ethics. In the course of this study, the ethical theory of these philosophers will be analyzed through three stages of “Foundation of Ethics,” “System of Ethics,” and “Application of Ethics”: Foundation of Ethics seeks out human will as the sole possible ground for ethical theory of both Kant and Fichte; System of Ethics follows the endeavors of the two thinkers in deducing concept of ethics from this sole ground; and lastly, Application of Ethics introduces the ethical thoughts resulting from a Fichtean account of ethics. This thesis is mostly based upon studies of Allen W. Wood of the ethical thoughts of Kant and... 

    The Roots of John Rawls' "Theory of Justice" in Kant's Practical Philosophy

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Rafiei Nasab, Mohammad Reza (Author) ; Taheri Khorramabadi, Ali (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The research examines the influence of Kant’s practical philosophy on John Rawls’ theory of justice, under the concept of “autonomy”. In the initial chapter, foundational concepts of the study such as “autonomy” and “duty” are discussed in detail within the context of prevailing views in moral philosophy, particularly deontological ethics. The overarching idea of this chapter is to establish a general conceptual framework for posing the main research question. The second chapter of this research specifically and independently elucidates Kant’s practical philosophy and clarifies his interpretation of the concept of “autonomy”. The aim of structuring this chapter is to demonstrate that... 

    The Evolution of a Geometric Space in in the Nineteenth Century

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Karimi, Ehsan (Author) ; Shahshahani, Siavash (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The meaning and the nature of space and it’s essential properties seems to be one of the oldest problems which has been continuing to occupy human’s mind during centuries. It can be counted as a common ground between philosophy, mathematics, physics and even art. However this thesis concentrates on the philosophical and mathematical attitudes, neglecting the other aspects of the issue. Prima facie, it appears that the concept of space is essentially mingled with geometry, the science which seems to investigate the essentials of space. Taking it for granted, Kant regarded space, and so Euclidean geometry which dominates it, as an indispensible and necessary structure of the human’s mind....
