Immanuel Kant: Reasons Kant's exposition in Kt18 exemplifies this Critical (perspectival) shift by op­posing the merchandise of his own prejudices concerning the spirit-world (Chapter Two) with the dead weight of a reductionist explanation (Chapter Three). Here at the threshold of his mature philosophical Sys­tem, then, Kant stresses the overriding importance of what I call the 'judicial' standpoint [see note I.17]: 'This is the only inaccuracy [of the scales of reason] which I cannot easily remove, and which, in fact, I never want to remove' [349-50(86)]. This action, Kant argues, constitutes a retarding moment on the Earth's surface (1:187); this retardation, he infers, slows down the Earth's rotation (1:188); and the lunar brake only lets go, he concludes, when days are as long as lunar months (1:190). www.lycos.com /info/immanuel-kant--reasons.html   (549 words)

Immanuel Kant 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. Kant's theory of the Antinomies draws on the Greek Skeptics, whose founder, Pyrrhô of Elis, was with the army of Alexander the Great in India. Kant therefore understood that Hume's problem was not with the quid facti, that there were causes and effects, and necessary connection, but with the quid juris, the epistemic justification of the principle. www.friesian.com /kant.htm   (9858 words)

Kant in a Nutshell   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29) Personal comment: my approach to a study of Kant is to imagine that he is a highly disciplined and highly imaginative and highly observant manwo; and then I try to inculcate these same characteristics in myself. Thus the world in which we live and that we recognize is a massive concoction of the human mind whereby we are able to tame what otherwise would be true wildness, i.e., taking specters/Erscheinung as things on their own, and make sense and order of it all. And if Hume had made that jump in his thinking, according to Kant, then he would have realized that there were an object provided to arithmetic whereby (alone) its advances would have been possible. www.mindspring.com /~kantwesley/Kant/Nutshell.html   (2720 words)

MACOSXCENTRIC.COM - Love art - Immanuel Kant   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29) In effect, the work of Kant's aesthetic philosophy revitalized notions of beauty, opening up the possibility of multiple coexisting aesthetic systems, united by the pan-human power or ability to make aesthetic judgments. What distinguished Kant from Winckelmann was in the former's understanding of Enlightenment, which he linked to his 'aesthetic conception of the public sphere as an inter-subjective space of free discussion not mediated by a concept or a rule'. At the same time that Kant's philosophy opened up the possibility of multiple aesthetic tastes, he also closely tied aesthetics to morality, of which he held that beauty was the symbol or analogue. www.macosxcentric.com /immanuel.html   (201 words)

HEGEL AND MATHEMATICS Thus the intuitionists (Weyl, Brouwer), following Kant, take the view that pure a priori intuition forms the subject matter of mathematics, while the logicists, who since Leibnitz take mathematics to be part of logic, see in axioms and theorems the laws of reason. Thus he does in fact correctly describe the abstract, formal essence of the mathematical method, according to which “first definitions and axioms are set up, to which theorems are attached, whose proof consists merely in being reduced by the understanding to those unproven postulates”. This standpoint is diametrically opposed to that of Kant, according to which science is only worthy of the name to the extent that mathematics finds a place in it. www.marxists.org /reference/subject/philosophy/works/ru/kolman.htm   (5559 words)

Untitled Document But before entering into this complicated and complex issue, it is imperative, since we are founding this African Center here in West Berlin, to indicate and pay a few homages. It is essential for us to historically recall and politically affirm that it was here in Berlin that one of the outstanding African intellectuals participated in the German Enlightenment, whose ideologue and spiritual leader Immanuel Kant was. It was here in Berlin in the early part of the eighteenth-century that the brilliant Ghanian philosopher, Anton Wilhelm Amo, taught and lived. www.pitzer.edu /new_african_movement/general/essays/umoja.htm   (2460 words)

Zoroaster Zarathustra - Crystalinks Once the Avesta had been brought to the West in the 18th century, his name again became famous in the West - this time not for magic, but for the humanistic, monotheistic, moral philosophy found in the Gathas.
