I don't think this was meant to be a scholarly explanation, and the author hints as much at the end of the post.
Kant was my main focus (now some time ago), and I thought this was a reasonable explainer for an audience that probably hasn't read much metaphysics.
- Merrill 3y agoDoes Kant focus this way on the individual's experience and reason? It seems to me that we only reach some provisional truth when communicating minds agree on their experiences and how they are reduced by reason to concepts. Only by formal processes for reaching agreement with past and candidate truths by multiple individuals do we avoid error, delusion and fantasy.
- woodruffw 3y agoIt’s been a while, but I don’t think Kant has much to say about individual experience vis a vis interpersonal consensus. But maybe there’s something I’m not remembering.
