Categories and functors

Categories and functors

[Peter May]

Yes, of course primarily categories.  But my recollection is also functor.
Here is an example from the web.   It is funny that the reference to Kant
is to the French usage: Saunders and I talked about the parallel use
of terminology derived from Kant in the phenomenological school of
literary criticism, as was then (1960's) fashionable.   (My wife's PhD is
in French literature, and some of our friends of yore were steeped in
that tradition and language).
