The remaining four main parts focus on Kant's “psychologistic explications of the possibility and forms of” sensibility in the Transcendental Aesthetic, of thought in the Metaphysical Deduction and of cognizable objects in the Transcendental Deduction...

... in the OP the Spinozism that had been percolat- ing all along. Edwards opens his argument for this ambitious claim by noting that key pas- sages from the ether deduction in the OP resonate sympathetically with a curi- ous passage from the Third Analogy. At A213/B260, Kant has been discussing...

... not see Kant as worrying about skepticism very much, certainly not in the Transcendental Deduction, which could well explain why he focuses his interpretation of this much-disputed argument on Kant’s equation of the unity of apperception with the representation of oneself as representing a whole world...

... is an important one. Some theories in the psychology of deductive inference invoke a kind of “inner logic,” whereby we reason from premises in a formal, syntactic, rule-governed way, irrespective of the contents of the premises and conclusions ( Braine and O'Brien 1998 ). Most psychologists, however, think we...

... syllogistic logic and compan- ion forms of inference. Hume is said to have refined their nonformal accounts of inference, adopting a naturalistic theory. Owen argues that all three philos- ophers had a conception of human reasoning different from today’s models of deductive validity. It is not clear...

... on a deductive argument whose premise is “possibly there is a God who can do anything” and whose con- clusion is “possibly there is a God who deceives me even about my clear and dis- tinct perceptions.” The same point holds if the radical doubt is based on a “defective origins hypothesis” that “trades...

The Transcendental Deduction and Schematism chapter are taken to show that categories admit of an objectively valid use with respect to things...

...-pronged answer to the idealist. First, Renz correctly argues that in part 2 of the Ethics we do not get a deduction of the human mind from the essence of God. The idealist recognizes that this cannot be done—no finite thing can be deduced from the essence of God, and hence the idealist concludes...

...-down objections to either view, it is suggested that the debate between absolutists and relativists has to be decided on points. Points are being deducted from the absolutist’s score for relying on primitive higher-order quantifiers. It seems that points must similarly be deducted from the relativist’s...
