Summary/Abstract: The present article compares Immanuel Kant's and Hermann Lotze's concepts of synthetic judgements. Lotze's aim is a renewing of Kant's solutions, which da chieves thanks to the introduction of the disctinction between the analytic (identical) content and the synthetic form of these judgements, recognised by Kant as synthetic. This distinction makes it possible to lay down the concept of the intentional sense which has an influence over Gottlob Frege and Edmund Husserl.
