#rationalist philosophy

• Apriorism — A philosophical doctrine or epistemological orientation (specifically prominent in German idealism and Cartesianism) which asserts that the foundational elements of human knowledge are innate or independent of sensory experience, being structured exclusively by pure reason prior to any empirical research.
• Apriority — The quality, trait, or state of being a priori; the absolute independence of mental frameworks, concepts, or logical categories from any form of sensory or empirical experience. In classical gnoseology, it defines the logical and structural priority of pure reason in organizing knowledge.
