English commentary: "... we should focus on these accounts" - i.e. "for maintaining epistemic individualism" - "that are most likley tp provide good reasons for individualism, and these are to be found, I think, in the rational rather than in the empiristic tradition. ... In the end, it will turn out, perhaps somewhat surprisingly, that both Spinoza and Kant, while adopting a rather critical stance toward the Cartesian concept formation, remained loyal to what may be considered Descartes' reasons for his epistemic individualism."
