The Cartesian critique of resemblance -- of a different kind. It is not thinking of the XVI century, concerned about himself and begins to get rid of his most familiar pieces; it is the classical way of thinking, excluding resemblance as the fundamental practice and primary form of knowledge, finding in it a jumbled mess which needs to be analyzed in terms of identity and the differences of proportion and order. If Descartes rejects resemblance, then not by excluding the act of comparison of rational thinking, attempts to restrict this act, but on the contrary, it universalizer and giving him thereby the most pure form. Indeed, it is through comparison, we find "figure the length, movement and other such things", that is simple essence, in all the subjects in which they can contain. But on the other hand, in the deduction of the type "every A there In, everything In there is therefore every A is C" clear that the mind "compares a search term and this term, namely A and C, in the sense that one or the other is In". Therefore, if we leave aside the intuitive comprehension some things, we can say that any knowledge "is achieved by comparing two or more things with each other
