Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with Richard Rorty’s critique toward Philosophy as Mirror of Nature or foundational philosophy. Rorty’s critiques as it locus has the naivety of the foundational philosophy (Descartes-Locke-Kant, tradition)– the ahistoricity of intelligible truths – the representation of all reality through ‘Mirror of Nature’ (mind) and their consequence in contemporary philosophical debate. Through his sharp articulation, he will diagnose the foundational philosophy giving edification of philosophy as an alternative. As Habermas stated: ‘like the later Wittgenstein, Rorty sees philosophy itself as the sickness whose symptoms it previously and unsuccessfully tried to cure’.
