Now, suppose my subject is Knowledge.
My Method requires that I know something about knowledge already. Otherwise, how I am going to know whether my analysis is a good analysis.
One cannot clarify what is not there, because it is not there.
One cannot clarify without knowing something he is to clarify.
If one does not know anything about Knowledge, what is it to know something. How can we expect one can present us a conception out of nowhere?
