Resumo

This article is based on research in the Külpe archives in Munich, as well as on analysis of his published works. It addresses itself to some of the unresolved questions regarding Külpe's relation to the Würzburg School and seeks to explain this relation in terms of Külpe's changing philosophical views. Külpe's shift in the late 1890s from Machian phenomenalism to realism led to his interest in the psychology of thinking and may be seen as part of the “revolt against positivism” of that decade.
