K A N T "CRITIQUE OF PURE REASON"

[anaspis]

What Kant thematizes in this book?

What is the fundamental ground of this book?

[Onasander]

Kant was a facilitator.... he just pretty much outlined how a facilitator can think.... not how all of them do- but how they all could. It a largely worthless text if your not of that psychological type.

It's dated too. If you don't have to read it, and are tight on time, don't both trying to crack Kant.... as I said, you have to be of his type or a related type- such as Contributor, to even get use out of him.

I have his history pamphlet in the kitchen now (wrinkled up a tad from the steam)- I read it if busy cooking with nothing else to do while waiting.... I highly suggest approaching Kant this way- a straight, determined reading will only cause sterility. I will never stop reading him, going back over and over what he wrote- but that being said- I am not enthusiastic either... most of my willingness to read him is because he still get's quoted.... if we could all just agree not to quote him anymore.... I could happily give it all up.

Interesting approach to this giant philosopher.

Why he is facilitator? I do not know exactly and I am not special in philosophy and especially in Kant but I have read a little these days and I found not how one (in your case a facilitator) could think but I think how much the subject can cognize something before the experience and before the understanding or thinking. Also, they told me that it is difficult and maybe impossible for someone to understand the contemporary or the post Kantian philosophy without the Kantian Critique of Pure Reason.
