I. Kant on Transcendental - Dictionary of Arguments
I 81f Transcendental Knowledge/Kant: ("knowledge a priori") conditions of possibility of knowledge - can be guaranteed only by mathematization of the given of intuitions. - Criterion for science. --- Strawson V 19ff Transcendental Analytics/Kant: 1. Experience: order 2. unit in the same order as required for the awareness (Thesis of the unity of consciousness) 3. experience of objects is distinguishable of experience of what about the case is, so that judgments are also possibly independent of the subjective experience (objectivity thesis) 4. objects are substantially spatially 5. a uniform spatiotemporal system is necessary 6. Physical objects: need certain principles of perseverance and causality (theses of analogies). >Experience/Kant, >Analogies/Kant, >Principles/Kant. V 74 f Transcendental Deduction/Kant/Strawson: premise: experience includes a manifold that is suitable for being united somehow in uniform judgments. >Judgment/Kant. V 75 StrawsonVs: the "pure" terms have no necessary application on the experience. V 134 Transcendental Ideas/Kant: 1. absolute unity of the subject, 2. the conditions of phenomena, 3. the conditions of objects. --- Stroud I 153 Transcendental/Kant/Stroud: transcendental are the things independent of us, albeit every sense impression is dependent on us. - Difference: transcendent: claims an otherworldly realm of experience - transcendental/Kant: is a theory, if it has to do with the general conditions of our knowledge of things independent of experience. - This is a condition of empirical knowledge at all. - These conditions cannot be known empirically themselves - (but a priori). - Experience/Kant: shows that a thing is so and so, but not that it cannot be different. --- Stroud I 162 Def transcendental realism/Kant: sees the external things as something seperated from the senses - KantVs: that leads to empirical idealism. Problem: we are aware of our representations, but do not know whether they correspond with something that exists. >Thing in itself/Kant. --- Adorno XIII 13 Transcendental/Kant/Adorno: in Kant, the concept of the transcendental is, in the first place, nothing other than the epitome of all the investigations which refer to synthetic judgments a priori. >Synthetic judgments a priori._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
