 Transcription of pp. 20-21, handwritten notes on 'Problema historicitatis'

I: radicale a: augentur sapientia  intelligentia scientia
                   b: nexus subtiliores perspicientur
                       conceptus accuratiores formantur

II: Tempori comparatur
               a: progressus exsistit atque regressus
        cf XIV coluit logicum
                    neglexit intelligentiam
                --> scepticismum

               b: progressus in uno campo
                   regressus in alio
                      determinismus mechan
                         XVI - XX

               c: stadia fundamentalia  distinguuntur  
              saltem principia distinctionis
non phenomenalis
      conceptus: Hebraeicus, Graecus
but principal

            d: deducuntur singulis stadiis modi cogitationis, percipiendi, vivendi
      E. Cassirer : myth :: Kant : Newton

Quod problema excluditur
(a) si conceptus habentur non ex intelligentia rerum sed ex ipsis rebus
(b) si nihil scientificum nisi quod necessario concluditur ex
principiis necessariis, per se notis, certis, a nullo disputatis    

Nemo cogitur ad sapientiam: qui vult cogi, manebit cum parva sua sapientia -- max damnum eccl infert
   
(second page)

Problema historicitatis
  radicalis *****
a:  progrediente intelligentia
         plenius accuratius perspiciuntur nexus [et] foprmantur conceptus
b: ipse intellectur et se et partem sensitivam cognoscit
  ex 'per se' ad 'concretum'
                            historicum

Exclusio historicitatis
         omittitur plenior intelligentia
           plenissime iam est habita apud Ar. Aug. Aq.
          omittitur concretum, quaestionum classificatio conjugitur ad per se
