![]() ![]() Using the methods of science, Kant demonstrates that though each mind may, indeed, create its own universe, those universes are guided by certain common laws, which are rationally discernible. Kant saw the Critique of Pure Reason as an attempt to bridge the gap between rationalism (there are significant ways in which our concepts and knowledge are gained independently of sense experience) and empiricism (sense experience is the ultimate source of all our concepts and knowledge) and, in particular, to counter the radical empiricism of David Hume (our beliefs are purely the result of accumulated habits, developed in response to accumulated sense experiences). The Critique of Pure Reason, first published in 1781 with a second edition in 1787, has been called the most influential and important philosophical text of the modern age. Kant likes to make his own words such as apperception to describe self-consciousness. In his famous work Critique of Pure Reason, he seeks to answer the question of how to approach the act of learning through your senses. Translated by John Miller Dow Meiklejohn (1836 - 1902) Immanuel Kant is a complex philosopher to interpret. ![]() Download cover art Download CD case insert The Critique of Pure Reason ![]()
