Immanuel Kant, Prolegomena - Critique And Metaphysics As Science - Sadler's Lectures
Listen now
Description
This lecture discusses key ideas from the 18th century philosopher Immanuel Kant's work, The Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics. Specifically it focuses on the "Solution of the General Problem of the Prolegomena", where Kant contrasts the kind of metaphysics that can be developed after the critique of pure reason (by itself) with what passes as metaphysics (dogmatic or "school" metaphysics), and discusses how critique can carry us beyond the skepticism the dialectic of reason inevitably leads to if we do not engage in critique.
