1 | The Critique of Pure Reason, Volume 2 | Immanuel Kant |
In this seminal text, Kant argues that human knowledge is limited to the phenomenal world, which is experienced through the senses and understood through the categories of space, time, and causality. He introduces the concept of the "transcendental aesthetic," which outlines the necessary conditions for the possibility of experience, and the "transcendental analytic," which analyzes the conditions under which objects can be known. Kant's critique of pure reason aims to demonstrate that there are limits to human knowledge, while also asserting the necessity and validity of reason in the acquisition of knowledge. This groundbreaking work laid the foundation for modern philosophy and has had a profound impact on subsequent philosophical thought. |
