Ken is from the verb 'ken' still used in northern dialects and Scottish. In German 'kennen' means 'to know'. OED says: "The form is properly causative ‘to cause to know’, ‘to make known’, and was restricted to this use in Goth. and OE. At an early period, however, in all the Teutonic tongues, the verb also acquired the sense ‘to know’. In Eng. this may have been taken from Norse, in which both senses were in early use. In mod. Eng. ken is only archaic (in sense 6) and has its pa. tense and pa. pple. kenned (cf. pen, penned); in Sc. (where it has entirely displaced knaw ‘to know’) the pa. tense and pple. are now kent; south Sc. kend.]"

OED says re 're': "Ablative of L. res thing, affair. Now freq. apprehended as a preposition, and used in weakened senses to mean ‘about, concerning’." Descartes is famous for his distinction between res extensa and res cogito: extended thing and thinking thing, the latter thing supposedly being us.

"I think, therefore I am" is often interpreted as a syllogistic argument, but it ain't; it's a postulate posing the I as an ego-subject. We've been stuck with that postulate for centuries.
