02438348033 On the concept of transcendental subject in Western philosophy history before Marx
In the dawn of mankind, before the huge and immense world, human beings wondered about themselves and asked why they are born. What is the meaning of being human in this life? What is their relation and role in the huge universe? The questions are the source of inspiration for interesting and profound philosophical thought, including the self-awareness as the subject (the thinking self and the conscious self). Through the connection, comprehension and knowledge of the universe and the world and the transformation of the world attributes and rules and the understanding of universe into themselves and their life, human beings gradually established new relationship: the relationship between human beings and the nature or the relationship between the subject and object. This is the starting point for formulating the thought about subject in general and the transcendental subject in particular in the Western history of philosophy.

A look at the History and Application of Critical Theory
A look at the History and Application of Critical Theory
Abstract: Researchers who supported the idea of critical theory based their argument on the assumption that there is always a need for criticism in order to promote changes in society. The ultimate goal of critical theory, rather than predicting, explaining, or understanding social phenomenon, is to point out problems and pushing the decision of transformation. Critical theory assumed that the phenomenon is already existed and the inequality can only be addressed by reorganizing the society. This theory is inherently influenced by Marxism and the analytical ideas of Karl Marx. Although the researching process still involves the action of observing, analyzing, but the core idea of critical theory, as its name suggested, is to pursue changes through criticizing. There are six key concepts of this theory: text, meaning, culture, polysemy, hegemony, and ideology. It is because of its diversity that critical theory has very high applicability in the field of social studies and communication. This article aims to present an overview of the development history of critical theory and one of its outstanding applications – reader response theory.
