Abstract: The term dogmatism first appeared as the opposite of antique skepticism, later as a critical label for pre-Enlightenment schools of metaphysics. Through German Idealism “dogmatism” slowly became less of a technical notion and came to mean a lack of thoughtfulness in everyday life. It came to mean uncritical closed-mindedness, intellectual inflexibility, or the refusal to question disputed ideas. ⸙
