 After intense study of Bardili’s Grundriß der Ersten Logik, gereinigt von den Irrthümmern bisheriger Logiken überhaupt, der Kantischen insbesondere; Keine Kritik sondern eine Medicina mentis, brauchbar hauptsächlich für Deutschlands Kritische Philosophie [Outline of First Logic, Cleansed of the Errors of Previous Logics in General and of the Kantian Logic in Particular. Not a Critique but a Medicine for the Mind, Especially Useful for Germany’s Critical Philosophy], Reinhold declared his allegiance to Bardili’s system in December 1799. Reinhold’s explicit commitment to rational realism would last until his “linguistic turn.” However, this final phase of Reinhold’s philosophical development, focused on language, was still strongly informed by rational realism.
