This text intends to discuss, from the Kantian point of view, what may be taught and what may be learned in Philosophy. Its objective is to construct Kant's hypothetical arguments in face of the structuralist method of reading philosophical texts. To circumscribe this theme, which is apparently quite broad, we take as guide line a well-known classroom text from I. Kant, published by G.B. Jäsche under the title Manual of General Logic Courses (Manual dos Cursos de Lógica Geral). Kant taught for more than forty years, until the end of his teaching activities in 1797, and on it he presents considerations which are quite fertile and current regarding the teaching of the History of Philosophy and the formation of the philosopher. Based on the distinction between historical knowledge and rational knowledge, and the distinction between the concept of philosophy in the school and the concept of philosophy in the world (AK 9:24), we will try to present Kantian contributions which may still be considered relevant to discuss the way of teaching Philosophy and the formation of the philosopher.
