Abstract

While modern science presupposes an "objective world" a priori, the world is fundamentally inseparable from the subjective "way of recognizing." This study proposes an entirely new scientific and philosophical framework-Existentialist Topological Epistemology-to describe the structure of recognition using the formal language of topology. Here, topology is utilized not merely to describe physical forms, but to formalize the "form of concepts" (the concept of concepts).
