   Extractions: Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) German philosopher, professor of logic and metaphysics, whose masterpiece, The Critique of Pure Reason , appeared in 1781 and then in a substantially revised edition in 1787. The work was an answer to Descartes's skepticism about knowledge. Kant's aim was to make philosophy, for the first time, truly scientific, but his jargon made his central writings nearly impossible for the uninitiated to understand. Even professional philosophers have had problems with Kant. A.J. Ayer (1910-1989), the writer of Language, Truth and Logic , tells that he read The Critique on a ship bound for the Gold Coast. After a sunstroke, he fully grasped Kant's work in a state of epiphany, but once he had recovered he had lost the insight. "Two things fill the mind with ever-increasing wonder and awe, the more often and the more intensely the mind of thought is drawn to them: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me."

   Extractions: Immanuel Kant was a German philosopher who began in the tradition of Continental rationalism (Descartes, Spinoza and Leibniz), was awakened from his dogmatic slumber by Hume's attacks on the rationalist account of causality, and ended by producing a critical philosophy which in some ways synthesizes elements from both the empiricist tradition (Gassendi, Locke, Berkeley and Hume) and the Continental rationalists. At least, this is where Kant placed himself in the picture, whether accurately or not is open to question. Kant sought to show that some basic principles of science and mathematics which in fact tell us things about the world (and are therefore synthetic , could be known a priori that is by intuition alone without experience. While allowing that some synthetic a priori judgements are possible, Kant holds that a good deal of metaphysics which claims to know about the world by reasoning alone is illegitimate. The Kantian system has been enormously influential over the last two centuries. Kant's ethical works have also had an enormous influence. The distinction between categorical and hypothetical imperatives, the concept of the good will and the idea that ethical judgements should not be made on the basis of the consequences of actions but on whether they are right or not measured by the standard of the categorical imperative have made Kantianism a great contender with Utilitarianism and other ethical systems.

    Immanuel Kant and nineteenthcentury European philosophy.  
    http://www.textetc.com/theory/kant.html
    
    Extractions: Much of nineteenth century philosophy , as indeed our own, is a development of Kant's insights into the nature of reality and human reasoning. Beauty as disinterested pleasure is broadly accepted by the Anglo-American schools of aesthetics , but not by the continental, which stress intention and so the wider social and political dimensions. The divide is fundamental, and underlies the war that Postmodernism wages on the settled categories of academic thought. Critique of Pure Reason Though Kant's writing is in places obscure and inconsistent, giving rise to varying interpretation, his main arguments are readily grasped. The central concern of Kant's Critique of Pure Reason is metaphysics: how we can know things that lie beyond the bounds of experience? Kant's answer lay through what he called "a priori synthetic" concepts. To take a familiar example: mathematics Nothing if not comprehensive, Kant organized concepts into categories of understanding, which he grouped under quantity (unity, plurality and totality), quality (reality, negation, limitation), relation (inherence and subsistence, causality and dependence, and reprocity) and modality (possibility and impossibility, existence and nonexistence, and necessity and contingency). How did Kant arrive at these categories? By various routes. He respected the traditional categories of

    Extractions: IMMANUEL KANT (1724-1804), German philosopher, was born at Konigsberg on the 22nd of April 1724. His grandfather was an emigrant from Scotland , and the name Cant is not uncommon in the north of Scotland, whence the family is said to have come. His father was a saddler in Konigsberg, then a stronghold of Pietism , to the strong influence of which Kant was subjected in his early years. In his tenth year he was entered at the Collegium Fredericianum with the definite view of studying theology . His inclination at this time was towards classics , and he was recognized, with his school-fellow, David Ruhnken , as among the most promising classical scholars of the college. His taste for the greater Latin authors, particularly Lucretius , was never lost, and he acquired at school an unusual facility in Latin composition. With Greek authors he does not appear to have been equally familiar. During his university course, which began in 1740, Kant was principally attracted towards mathematics and physics. The lectures on classics do not seem to have satisfied him, and, though he attended courses on theology, and even preached on one or two occasions, he appears finally to have given up the intention of entering the Church. The last years of his university studies were much disturbed by poverty. His father died in 1746, and for nine years he was compelled to

    Historical background and explanation of his metaphysical ideas.  
    http://www.iep.utm.edu/k/kantmeta.htm
    
    Extractions: Immanuel Kant is one of the most influential philosophers in the history of Western philosophy. His contributions to metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics have had a profound impact on almost every philosophical movement that followed him. This portion of the Encyclopedia entry will focus on his metaphysics and epistemology in one of his most important works, The Critique of Pure Reason . (All references will be to the A (1781) and B(1787) edition pages in Werner Pluhar's translation. Indianapolis: Hackett, 1996.) A large part of Kant's work addresses the question "What can we know?" The answer, if it can be stated simply, is that our knowledge is constrained to mathematics and the science of the natural, empirical world. It is impossible, Kant argues, to extend knowledge to the supersensible realm of speculative metaphysics. The reason that knowledge has these constraints, Kant argues, is that the mind plays an active role in constituting the features of experience and limiting the mind's access to the empirical realm of space and time.

    Extractions: Mathematics ... the possibility of human knowledge presupposes the active participation of the human mind The monumental Kritik der reinen Vernunft Critique of Pure Reason fully spells out the conditions for mathematical, scientific, and metaphysical knowledge in its "Transcendental Aesthetic," "Transcendental Analytic," and "Transcendental Dialectic," but Kant found it helpful to offer a less technical exposition of the same themes in the Prolegomena to any Future Metaphysic ) (1783). Carefully distinguishing judgments as analytic or synthetic and as a priori or a posteriori , Kant held that the most interesting and useful varieties of human knowledge rely upon synthetic a priori judgments , which are, in turn, possible only when the mind determines the conditions of its own experience. Thus, it is we who impose the forms of space and time upon all possible sensation in mathematics, and it is we who render all experience coherent as scientific knowledge governed by traditional notions of substance and causality by applying the pure concepts of the understanding to all possible experience.

17. Immanuel Kant
    Introduction to his philosophy. From The Proceedings of the Friesian School, Fourth Series.  
    http://www.friesian.com/kant.htm
    
    Extractions: Kant's most original contribution to philosophy is his "Copernican Revolution," that, as he puts it, it is the representation that makes the object possible rather than the object that makes the representation possible. This introduced the human mind as an active originator of experience rather than just a passive recipient of perception. Something like this now seems obvious: the mind could be a tabula rasa , a "blank tablet," no more than a bathtub full of silicon chips could be a digital computer. Perceptual input must be processed , i.e. recognized , or it would just be noise "less even than a dream" or "nothing to us," as Kant alternatively puts it. But if the mind actively generates perception, this raises the question whether the result has anything to do with the world, or if so, how much. The answer to the question, unusual, ambiguous, or confusing as it would be, made for endless trouble both in Kant's thought and for a posterity trying to figure him out. To the extent that knowledge depends on the structure of the mind and not on the world, knowledge would have no connection to the world and is not even true representation , just a solipsistic or intersubjective fantasy. Kantianism seems threatened with "psychologism," the doctrine that what we know is our own psychology, not external things. Kant did say, consistent with psychologism, that basically we don't know about "things-in-themselves," objects as they exist apart from perception. But at the same time Kant thought he was vindicating both a
