Summary/Abstract: Properly understanding what philosophy is – what it means and what it does – oftentimes can’t be delineated from the practice of philosophizing about its history. Pace Wilhelm Schapp’s philosophy of stories, one could argue that the aforementioned reflection of the history of philosophy consists in realizing that each experience we encounter is essentially story-bound. Some of the most notable errors that the philosophical tradition has made (and continues to make) are closely connected with inappropriate ways of treating instances such as sentences, conclusions, statements, words (language as such), subjectivity, as well as dichotomies of truth and error, real and confabulated, conscious and unconscious, etc. A certain kind of deconstruction of the history of philosophy, which Schapp purports, shows us a fresh, lucid, and inventive project that has been mainly, but unrightfully ignored by the dominant philosophical currents thus far.
